Prime examples of nonconsumption
Budget cuts and teacher shortages are an opportunity,not a threat
• Credit recovery• Drop outs• AP/advanced courses• Scheduling conflicts• Home-schooled and homebound students• Small, rural, urban schools• Unit recovery• Disaster preparedness• Tutoring• Developing countries
• Professional development• Pre-K• After school• In the home• Incarcerated youth• In-school suspension• School bus commute• Summer school• Teacher absenteeism• Migrant worker families• Foreign languages
Online learning gaining adoption
50% all HS courses online
by 2019
A formal education program in which a student learns at least in part through online learning, with some element of student control over time, place, path and/or pace
at least in part in a supervised brick-and-mortar location away from home (such as school).

Policy: Move beyond old metrics
Free up inputs
→ Seat time→ Standardization→ Student : teacher ratios→Geographic boundaries→ Traditional teacher certification,
human resource pipeline, PD & evaluation
Focus on student
outcomes
→ Individual student growth→ College and career-ready standards→ Proficiency→ Closing achievement gap→Graduation rates
Policy: Create conditions for innovation & quality
Funding→ Dollars follow students = self-
sustaining→ Based on outcomes, but not all or
nothing
Portfolio approach
→Marketplace of choices→Multiple authorizers
Infrastructure→ Adequate broadband/wireless→On-demand assessments→ Transparent, student-level data

Rocky Mount Fast Facts
• Public K–12 charter school in Rocky Mount, North Carolina
• Independent North Carolina public charter school
• 965 total students • College prep curriculum • Title I school • 5 percent English Language
Learners • 65 percent minority students
Pain Points
• (Need general BL pain point)• Years of student math under
performance
• Need to transition to upcoming Common Core State Standards that would only highlight students’ background learning gaps
“Just to illustrate the lack of background knowledge some of our kids have, some of our kindergarten students don’t know their colors or the alphabet.”
Angela Langley, Dean of Math
Blended Learning Solution
• NEW Learning Lab• Add more content around non-DBL Blended Learning Solutions Rocky Mount
decided to implement…if any??
Why DreamBox Learning?
• Blended learning approach that would leverage both the Singapore Method and a supplemental online learning solution.
• To identify those gaps, and reinforce the
basics while providing the rigor required by the Common Core
“We were impressed by DreamBox Learning’s excellent track record of supporting blended learning and Singapore Math and by its proven ability to identify and isolate gaps, remedy them, and enable learners to advance alongside their peers.”
Angela Langley, Dean of Math
DreamBox Implementation• Deployed since September 2012• Daily rotation for every K–5 students
• 90 minutes per day, every day • Singapore Math learning model
Results with DreamBox Learning
This is 3rd grade data for Fall testing. We consider mastery working above average, target as average, and frustrated as below average as defined by iSTEEP Norms for Math Computer Assessment BOY (Beginning of Year).
This is 3rd grade data for Winter testing. We consider mastery working above average, target as average, and frustrated as below average as defined by iSTEEP Norms for Math Computer Assessment MOY (Middle of Year).
Results without DreamBox LearningAgain, DreamBox was only used in K-5. We did introduce DreamBox to 6th grade students after students returned from Winter Break in January 2013. Since their introduction to DreamBox we have not conducted benchmark testing. Note the increase in "Math Frustrated".
