THE BASAL ALTERNATIVE PROJECTDSC LAUNCHED THE BASAL ALTERNATIVE PROJECT IN JANUARY 2012. THE AMBITIOUS PLAN BEHIND THIS PROJECT IS TO CREATE A COMPLETE K-5 LITERACY PROGRAM THAT GETS TO THE CORE OF WHAT IS NEEDED TO ENHANCE INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICE IN READING AND LANGUAGE ARTS CLASSROOMS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. OUR SUITE OF INTEGRATED LITERACY PROGRAMS WILL:-EFFECTIVELY MOTIVATE ALL STUDENTS TO LEARN-PARTICULARLY THOSE FROM DISADVANTAGED BACKGROUNDS-HELP ALL STUDENTS MASTER BASIC LITERACY SKILLS WHILE ALSO LEARNING TO THINK DEEPLY ABOUT WHAT THEY READ AND WRITE-FACILITATE ALL STUDENTS' ACQUISITION OF SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL SKILLS AND ETHICAL AND CARING DISPOSITIONS, AS A SEAMLESS PART OF ACADEMIC INSTRUCTION-ESTABLISH CLASSROOM CONDITIONS IN WHICH ALL STUDENTS ARE ABLE TO FORM SUPPORTIVE RELATIONSHIPS WITH ONE ANOTHER AND THEIR TEACHERS AND, IN THE PROCESS, EFFECTIVELY "BOND" TO THEIR SCHOOL, THEIR TEACHERS, AND THEIR PEERS-SUPPORT TEACHERS IN THEIR OWN PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT AS THEY MAKE THE TRANSITION FROM USING BASAL TEXTBOOKS TO USING A BASAL ALTERNATIVETHE PROJECT CONTINUES TO MOVE AT A RAPID PACE, MAKING NOTABLE PROGRESS. WE ARE HOLDING TO THE PUBLICATION SCHEDULE FOR BOTH SIPPS AND "BEING A WRITER" PROGRAMS-SCHEDULES THAT WERE ACCELERATED FROM THE ORIGINAL PLAN-WHICH WILL AFFORD DSC QUICKER ACCESS TO THE RAPIDLY CHANGING MARKET. AT THIS TIME, THE FOURTH SIPPS LEVEL HAS BEEN PUBLISHED AND FINAL FILES FOR ALL LEVELS AND COMPONENTS OF "BEING A WRITER" HAVE BEEN RELEASED TO THE PRINTER, WHICH MEANS THAT PUBLICATION AND RELEASE TO OUR CUSTOMERS IS NOT FAR OFF. SOME OF THE MAJOR MILESTONES OF THIS PAST YEAR INCLUDE:-WE HAVE COMPLETED THE PUBLICATION OF ALL FOUR LEVELS OF SIPPS, DSC'S PHONICS INTERVENTION PRODUCT. THE PUBLICATION CONSISTED OF DUAL PRINT/DIGITAL TEACHER'S MANUALS AND WEB APPLICATIONS FOR ASSESSMENT, GROUPING, AND CARD DECK MANAGEMENT. THESE NEW PRODUCTS HAVE BEEN VERY WELL RECEIVED BY THE MARKET, AND THEY HELP VALIDATE DSC'S STRATEGIC DESIGN, WHICH ACCOMMODATES THE MULTIPLE TECHNOLOGY PLATFORMS AVAILABLE IN CLASSROOMS. -WE HAVE ALSO COMPLETED THE DEVELOPMENT OF ALL LEVELS AND COMPONENTS OF "BEING A WRITER", GRADES K-5. THIS PROGRAM CONSISTS OF DUAL PRINT/DIGITAL TEACHER'S MANUALS AT EACH GRADE, STUDENT RESPONSE BOOKS (GRADES 1-5), ALL-NEW SKILL PRACTICE TEACHING GUIDE AND STUDENT SKILL PRACTICE BOOKS (GRADES 1-5), ASSESSMENT RESOURCE BOOK (ALL GRADE LEVELS), AND THE WRITING PERFORMANCE TASK PREPARATION GUIDE (GRADES 3-5). MORE THAN 1,000 INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD ACTIVITIES HAVE ALSO BEEN DEVELOPED FOR THE PROGRAM AND MORE THAN HALF OF THE 70 PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT VIDEOS THAT ACCOMPANY THE PROGRAM HAVE BEEN COMPLETED. -THE K-2 EARLY READING PROGRAM, NOW KNOWN AS BEING A READER, HAS UNDERGONE PILOT TESTING IN FOUR STATES WITH 40 TEACHERS. TEACHER FEEDBACK HAS BEEN INTEGRATED INTO THE PRODUCT DESIGN AND LESSON STRUCTURES WERE ADAPTED AS NEEDED. ALL WRITING FOR THE BEING A READER PROGRAM IS SCHEDULED FOR COMPLETION IN MARCH 2015. PUBLICATION IS SCHEDULED FOR DECEMBER 2015.-THE REVISION PLANS FOR MAKING MEANING AND MAKING MEANING VOCABULARY HAVE BEEN COMPLETED. BOOK SELECTION OF THE TRADE BOOK TITLES THAT ARE PART OF THE PROGRAM HAS BEEN COMPLETED FOR ALL GRADE LEVELS. WORK IS ON SCHEDULE FOR PUBLICATION IN MAY 2015.-WE HAVE DEVELOPED AND LAUNCHED THE DSC LEARNING HUB, A WEBSITE THAT SERVES AS AN ONLINE PORTAL LEADING TEACHERS AND ADMINISTRATORS TO PROGRAM-RELATED RESOURCES ONLINE. THE DSC LEARNING HUB IS ALSO A PLACE WHERE TEACHERS WILL FIND LINKS TO SUPPORT MATERIALS SUCH AS AN FAQ SECTION AND A KNOWLEDGE BASE. ADDITIONALLY, A NEW SUITE OF CUSTOMER-FACING ADMINISTRATIVE FEATURES WILL ALLOW USERS TO MANAGE THEIR LICENSES AND TRANSFER ACCOUNTS AND RESOURCES FROM ONE TEACHER TO ANOTHER. -WE HAVE DEVELOPED AND LAUNCHED OUR DIGITAL TEACHER'S MANUAL (DTM) FOR ALL OF THE SIPPS COMPONENT LEVELS (BEGINNING, EXTENSION, CHALLENGE, AND PLUS) AND FOR THE BEING A WRITER PROGRAM.

OTHER PROJECTS, BOTH GRANT SUPPORTED AND NON-GRANT SUPPORTEDALTHOUGH THE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED PROJECTS HAVE BEEN IMPORTANT FOCAL POINTS OF THE PAST YEAR, DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES CENTER HAS ALSO BEEN ENGAGED IN A NUMBER OF OTHER PROJECTS. HIGHLIGHTS OF SOME OF THESE INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:* THE CARING SCHOOL COMMUNITY(R) PROGRAM IN THE OAKLAND UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICTWITH CONTINUED FUNDING FROM THE S. D. BECHTEL, JR. FOUNDATION, DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES CENTER CONTINUES WORK BEGUN IN 2011* THAT IS FOCUSED ON EXPANDING AND DEEPENING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CARING SCHOOL COMMUNITY (CSC) PROGRAM IN THE OAKLAND UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT (OUSD) IN OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA. CSC IS A SCHOOLWIDE, CLASSROOM-BASED CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM THAT HELPS SCHOOLS BECOME CARING COMMUNTIES OF LEARNERS CHARACTERIZED BY:- CARING RELATIONSHIPS- RESPECTFUL COLLABORATION AMONG STUDENTS, STAFF, AND PARENTS- A SENSE OF COMMON PURPOSE- A CLEAR COMMITMENT TO NORMS AND VALUES OF KINDNESS, RESPECT, RESPONSIBILITY, AND LEARNING.* THE ORIGINAL GRANT WAS FUNDED BY THE S. D. BECHTEL, JR. FOUNDATION, THE SAN FRANCISCO FOUNDATION, AND THE MENDELSON FAMILY FUND AT THE EAST BAY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION.* AFTERSCHOOL KIDZSCIENCE(TM) WITH LAWRENCE HALL OF SCIENCEANOTHER AREA OF OUR WORK IS WITH AFTERSCHOOL KIDZSCIENCE, WHICH WE PUBLISH IN COLLABORATION WITH LAWRENCE HALL OF SCIENCE. IN 2013, WE PUBLISHED "SUNLIGHT SCIENCE" (MARCH 2013), WHICH JOINED "CRIME LAB SCIENCE" AND "MYSTERY DETECTIVES" (2012). THE KITS INCLUDE ALL OF THE MATERIALS NEEDED FOR THE ACTIVITIES, A HANDBOOK FEATURING SCIENCE BACKGROUND INFORMATION AND A GLOSSARY, A FACILITATOR'S GUIDE FOR EACH ACTIVITY SESSION, QUESTION CARDS TO EXTEND CHILDREN'S LEARNING, MULTIPLE ADDITIONAL PRINT COMPONENTS, AND VIDEO CLIPS TO HELP AFTER-SCHOOL LEADERS CONDUCT THE ACTIVITIES.* THE LESSON STUDY INITIATIVE PLANIN 2013, DSC COMPLETED YEAR THREE OF "THE METLIFE FOUNDATION LESSON STUDY INITIATIVE"--AN INITIATIVE TO SUPPORT THE REFINEMENT AND DISSEMINATION OF LESSON STUDY. THROUGH THE COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH PROCESS OF LESSON STUDY, TEACHERS LEARN TO BUILD TRUSTING, COLLABORATIVE RELATIONSHIPS, WORKING TOGETHER TO IMPROVE THEIR CLASSROOM PRACTICE AND, SO, BETTER SUPPORT STUDENTS' LEARNING. FROM THE START, WE AT DSC HAD TWO MAIN GOALS FOR THIS WORK. FIRST WAS TO LEARN THE MOST EFFECTIVE STRATEGIES FOR DISSEMINATING LESSON STUDY NATIONALLY. THE SECOND WAS TO COMPLETE OUR LESSON STUDY SUPPORT KIT--THE RESOURCE, NOW NAMED LEARNING LESSON STUDY COURSE, WHICH DSC CREATED FOR SCALING UP LESSON STUDY--AS WELL AS TO DEVELOP ONLINE TOOLS TO FURTHER SUPPORT LESSON STUDY. * SOCIAL MEDIA: PUTTING IT TO WORKDSC'S EVER-INCREASING REPOSITORY OF BLOGS CONTINUES TO ATTRACT READERS. OVERALL, SOCIAL MEDIA/ONLINE MARKETING, SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION (SEO), AND WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS CONTINUE TO HAVE AN INCREASINGLY POSITIVE EFFECT ON VISITS TO OUR WEBSITE, RESULTING IN A 48 PERCENT ANNUAL INCREASE IN ORGANIC TRAFFIC OVER LAST YEAR. (THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE TRAFFIC CONTRIBUTED BY GOOGLE ADWORDS.) A SIGNIFICANT EFFORT TO SUPPORT A SERIES OF COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS (CCSS) WEBINARS AND IN-PERSON EVENTS CONTRIBUTED TO THIS STATISTIC. WE CURRENTLY HAVE A POOL OF APPROXIMATELY 30,000 OPT-IN PROSPECTS AND CUSTOMERS.* TECHNOLOGY ENHANCEMENTSAS PART OF DEVELOPING/ENHANCING DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES CENTER'S LITERACY OFFERINGS, THE ORGANIZATION IS EXPLORING NEW TECHNOLOGIES TO INFUSE INTO OUR PROGRAMS. THIS WORK IS ONGOING, AND WHILE WE WILL CONTINUE TO STUDY THE POSSIBILITIES, SEVERAL THEMES HAVE BEGUN TO EMERGE: - ELECTRONIC TEACHER MANUALS: WE HOPE TO DEVELOP A NEW GENERATION OF TEACHER MANUALS, WHICH WILL INCLUDE EMBEDDED VIDEOS THAT SHOW EXEMPLARY PRACTICES.- INTERACTIVE WHITE BOARDS. FOR USE, AT FIRST, WITH THE MAKING MEANING AND BEING A WRITER PROGRAMS, WE ARE EXPLORING USE OF INTERACTIVE WHITE BOARDS, WHICH WILL PROVIDE AN EASY WAY TO DISPLAY PROGRAM MATERIALS, INCLUDING, FOR EXAMPLE, DIRECTIONS FOR STUDENTS AND PROMPTS FOR TEACHERS. THIS TECHNOLOGY WILL HELP ENSURE FIDELITY TO THE PROGRAM AND BETTER SUPPORT QUALITY IMPLEMENTATION.- WEB-ENABLED EXTENSION ACTIVITIES. USING INTERNET RESOURCES, STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO COLLABORATE ON EXTENSION ACTIVITIES RELATED TO WHAT THEY ARE LEARNING--COLLABORATIONS THAT CAN EXTEND BEYOND A SINGLE CLASSROOM OR SCHOOL. - DSC ASSESSMENT APP. DSC IS DEVELOPING AN ONLINE ASSESSMENT APP THAT HELPS TEACHERS GATHER ASSESSMENT AND PROGRESS DATA THROUGH VARIOUS PROGRAM-SPECIFIC INSTRUMENTS. WITH THIS INFORMATION, THE APP THEN AUTOMATICALLY GENERATES REPORTS THAT HELP TEACHERS MAKE DECISIONS THAT ENHANCE STUDENT LEARNING THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL YEAR.- SUPPORT@DEVSTU.ORG. AS PART OF DSC'S OVERARCHING EFFORT TO PROVIDE TEACHERS WITH SCAFFOLDING TO HELP THEM USE TECHNOLOGY IN GENERAL, WE AIM TO ENSURE THAT TEACHERS HAVE A POSITIVE USER EXPERIENCE WITH OUR TECHNOLOGY COMPONENTS. TO THAT END, OUR GOAL IS TO DEVELOP A SUPPORT INFRASTRUCTURE WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION THAT IS RESPONSE, EFFECTIVE, AND DEMONSTRATES A COMMITMENT TO GENUINELY HELP OUR PROGRAM USERS IN THEIR IMPLEMENTATION OF DSC PROGRAMS.

CARING SCHOOL COMMUNITY BUILD OUT (CSC) PROGRAMTHE CARING SCHOOL COMMUNITY BUILD OUT (CSC) PROGRAM IS AN APPROACH TO CREATING CARING SCHOOL ENVIRONMENTS THAT SUPPORT STUDENTS' CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT AND ACADEMIC LEARNING BY BUILDING SUPPORTIVE RELATIONSHIPS AMONG STUDENTS, TEACHERS, AND PARENTS AND BY GUIDING STUDENTS' ETHICAL, SOCIAL, AND EMOTIONAL AS WELL AS ACADEMIC GROWTH. THE CSC PROGRAM WILL SERVE AS A SCHOOL'S COMPLETE "OPERATING SYSTEM," PROMOTING STUDENT MOTIVATION AND ENGAGEMENT WHILE SETTING THE STAGE FOR EFFECTIVE ACADEMIC INSTRUCTION. IT WILL DIRECTLY SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE FIVE COLLABORATIVE FOR ACADEMIC, SOCIAL, AND EMOTIONAL LEARNING (CASEL) CORE COMPETENCIES OF SELF-AWARENESS, SELF-MANAGEMENT, SOCIAL AWARENESS, RELATIONSHIP SKILLS, AND RESPONSIBLE DECISION-MAKING. THE PROGRAM WILL ALSO PROVIDE SCHOOLS WITH THE FIRST VIABLE PROGRAMMATIC ALTERNATIVE TO THOSE APPROACHES TO DISCIPLINE THAT RELY ON TOP-DOWN RULES, EXTRINSIC REWARDS, AND CONSEQUENCES (I.E., PUNISHMENTS) TO SHAPE AND CONTROL STUDENT BEHAVIOR. AS THAT ALTERNATIVE, THE CSC PROGRAM WILL PROVIDE A COMPREHENSIVE, DEVELOPMENTAL APPROACH TO CLASSROOM AND SCHOOL MANAGEMENT-ONE THAT HELPS STUDENTS SUCCEED IN SCHOOL AND BECOME AUTONOMOUSLY REFLECTIVE, PRINCIPLED, CARING, AND RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS. THE ULTIMATE OBJECTIVE FOR THE BUILD OUT OF THE CSC PROGRAM IS TO ENHANCE THE PROGRAM SUCH THAT IT IS ADOPTED ON A MUCH WIDER SCALE AND, AS WELL, TO BECOME LESS EXPENSIVE TO IMPLEMENT WITH FIDELITY. THE PRACTICAL OBJECTIVES OF THAT BUILD OUT INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:- EXTENDING THE CSC PROGRAM TO SERVE MIDDLE SCHOOLS AS WELL AS ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS, SO THAT DISTRICTS CAN MORE READILY ALIGN THEIR EFFORTS ACROSS GRADES K-8. - CREATING A DISCIPLINE COMPONENT THAT HELPS STUDENTS TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR BEHAVIOR. - CREATING A DAILY ACTIVITIES COMPONENT THAT BUILDS CLASSROOM COMMUNITY WHILE TEACHING SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL SKILLS, INCLUDING INTRAPERSONAL, INTERPERSONAL, AND DECISION-MAKING SKILLS. - UPDATING AND EXPANDING SOME EXISTING CSC COMPONENTS, INCLUDING, FOR EXAMPLE, THE CLASS MEETINGS COMPONENT'S FOCUS ON MATTERS OF TEASING AND BULLYING. - CREATING TECHNOLOGY SUPPORT SYSTEMS FOR TEACHER DEVELOPMENT. - CREATING A USER-FRIENDLY ASSESSMENT SYSTEM THAT EDUCATORS CAN USE TO TRACK THEIR PROGRESS IN ESTABLISHING SAFE, CARING, AND SUPPORTIVE SCHOOL ENVIRONMENTS.

DISSEMINATION OF AFTERSCHOOL KIDZLIT AND AFTERSCHOOL KIDZMATHIN 2014, DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES CENTER CONTINUED ITS WORK WITH THE NEW YORK LIFE AFTER-SCHOOL INITIATIVE, A PROJECT SUPPORTING THE NATIONAL DISSEMINATION OF DSC'S AFTER-SCHOOL READING AND MATHEMATICS ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS THROUGH FUNDING PROVIDED BY THE NEW YORK LIFE FOUNDATION. FOR THIS MOST-RECENT TWO-YEAR PIECE OF GRANT WORK, WE FOCUSED ON NATIONAL DISSEMINATION EFFORTS. THIS WAS AN EXTENSION OF THE WORK OF THE ORIGINAL GRANTS (2007, 2008), WHICH CENTERED DISSEMINATION EFFORTS IN A TARGETED SET OF CITIES.THE PRIMARY GOAL OF THE INITIATIVE, WHICH CONCLUDED IN FEBRUARY 2014, HAS BEEN TO MAKE DSC'S AFTERSCHOOL KIDZLIT AND AFTERSCHOOL KIDZMATH PROGRAMS AVAILABLE TO AFTER-SCHOOL SITES SERVING DISADVANTAGED CHILDREN. THROUGH THIS EFFORT, GREATER NUMBERS OF LOW-INCOME/HIGH-NEED YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO ENGAGE IN THE HIGH-QUALITY LITERACY AND MATH ENRICHMENT EXPERIENCES THAT THESE AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS OFFER. IN TOTAL IN THE PAST TWO YEARS, WE HAVE TAKEN THE AFTERSCHOOL KIDZLIT AND AFTERSCHOOL KIDZMATH PROGRAMS INTO 2,870 AFTER-SCHOOL SITES, TOUCHED 6,240 SITE STAFF WITH THE ACCOMPANYING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT, AND ENGAGED APPROXIMATELY 287,000 CHILDREN IN THESE REWARDING PROGRAMS.

ALIGNED PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT IS OFFERED FOR EACH OF THESE PROGRAMS. OUR OVERALL GOAL IS TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF YOUNG PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY DISADVANTAGED ONES. THROUGH OUR PROGRAMS, STUDENTS ACQUIRE THE SKILLS THEY NEED TO BE PRODUCTIVE CITIZENS, TO THINK DEEPLY AND CRITICALLY SO THEY CAN CONTINUE LEARNING THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES, AND TO DEEPEN THEIR COMMITMENT TO VALUES SUCHAS KINDNESS, HELPFULNESS, PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY, AND RESPECT FOR OTHERS. TOGETHER THESE SKILLS WILL OPEN DOORS FOR THEM, LEADING THEM TO MORE FULFILLING AND PRODUCTIVE LIVES.
