AISI 

The Alberta Iniative for School Improvement (AISI) is a provincial iniative that is a bold approach to support the improvement of student learning and performance by encouraging teachers, parents, and the community to work collaboratively to introduce innovative and creative projects based upon local needs and circumstances.

 The provincial AISI Website is a one-stop-shop for all information about AISI. The contents include:  
     ·  Background information          
     ·  A Clearinghouse of AISI projects and promising practices
     ·  Supporting documents for planning and implementation AISI projects

     ·  Literature synopses, research reports, provincial reports, newsletters and other  publications related to school improvement

     ·  Workshop and conference information

 Goal:  To improve student learning through initiatives that enhance student engagement and performance and reflect the unique needs and circumstances of each school authority. 

 

 Principles:
  1. AISI projects will focus on student engagement, learning, and performance. 
  2. Collaboration, shared leadership, support of those who will implement the projects, and meaningful involvement of the school community are essential elements for school improvement. 
  3. AISI reflects the complexity of innovation and change processes. 
  4. The school authority project(s) is/are part of the three-year planning and reporting process for purposes of the school authority’s annual planning, reporting, and accountability processes. 
  5. AISI projects will have a balance of local and provincial measures that include approved quantitative and/or qualitative measures, appropriate to the project.   
  6. AISI project plans will reflect insights from research, literature, and related AISI projects.  
  7. The knowledge generated through AISI will be widely disseminated. 
  8. Networks that contribute to the goal of AISI will be created and/or enhanced for knowledge dissemination and the exchange of information, ideas, and resources. 
  9. Alberta Education will provide targeted AISI funding to school authorities.
