The Data Based Decision Making/Solution Plan (DBDM/Solution Plan) is a six-step process for using student office discipline referral (ODR) data to improve student behavior and school climate. The DBDM/Solution Plan guides SW-PBS teams to select and implement targeted intensifications of evidence-based practices (prevention, teaching, positive feedback and corrective feedback). Teams are encouraged to complete an entire DBDM/Solution Plan at least bi-monthly, and to monitor implementation and outcome data at least monthly. By regularly using the DBDM/Solution Plan in this way, teams establish cycles of continuous improvement. Check out the DBDM/Solution Plan resources under “Ongoing Monitoriong.”
