In September 2012, NC began transitioning to a new student information system by
upgrading from NC WISE to the new Student Information System (SIS)(PowerSchool).
In the fall of 2012, Home Base staff began identifying, vetting, tagging and aligning
instructional resources for Home Base.
In December 2012, a contract was awarded to Pearson for the instruction, assessment,
and dashboard components of the instructional improvement system.
In February 2013, the contract for Educator Evaluation & Professional Development
components was awarded to Public Consulting Group (PCG) and Truenorthlogic.

District Training: Leaders
• Face-to-Face with System Access (4 hours):
Administrators gather at computer lab/wifi enabled
space to participate in a session that follows a state
prepared training plan: Listen, Watch, Practice, Do,
Refresh approach:
– Listen - To trainer provide overview, context, and process.
– Watch – State created video/captivate.
– Practice – Completing task in system training
environment.
– Do – The work in the live production environment where
applicable (for example, Rights Assignment).
– Refresh – Review process by viewing web-based
video/captivates during administrator meetings and/or
self-directed.
School Level Training: Teachers
•
Training Case One: Face-to-Face with System Demonstration: School
administrators are encouraged to conduct training during a dedicated
session during which the leader demonstrates completing the overall
process (evaluator and teacher) using provided training accounts.
Immediately following the training, Teachers should be instructed to start
the PDP and Evaluation processes and complete their self assessment
and orientation. (Listen, Watch, Do and Refresh)
•
Training Case Two: Self-Directed: In some cases, face-to-face system
training may not be possible and teachers will participate in web-based
self-directed learning. In this scenario, teachers would participate in the
web-based self-directed learning process: (Watch, Do, Refresh).
•
In all scenarios, NCDPI recommends that administrators utilize “Just-InTime” review sessions during faculty meetings to address upcoming
process actions at key times throughout the year (see state webinar
training schedule as a sample calendar)
