Big 5 ODR data generation and
analysis
PBIS Summer Institute 2012
Nicole MartinRogers, Wilder Research
Amanda Petersen, Wilder Research
Purpose of today’s session
wilderresearch.org
Define the importance of ODR data to PBIS
Demonstrate a new tool that Wilder will be
introducing for schools that do not use SWIS
Clarify expectations from MDE regarding
tracking ODR data
Seek input from participating schools:
* Process of gathering ODR data
* To improve the usefulness of the tool
What is “ODR”? What is the “Big 5”?
wilderresearch.org
ODR = Office Discipline Referral
Big 5 = who, what, when, where, and how often
SWIS = School-Wide Information System, a tool
for gathering ODR data * This presentation is for schools that do NOT use SWIS
Why is ODR data important?
wilderresearch.org
Key outcome of PBIS is behavior in school
* At the school, district, region, and state level
ODRs are widely used indicators of problem
behavior and social climate in a school
Schools that implement PBIS with fidelity are
expected to see a drop in ODRs, because PBIS
uses evidence-based practices
(it really works!)
How can ODR data be used?
wilderresearch.org
Normative ODR pattern compared to results for
individual schools to assess effectiveness of Tier
1 and Tier 2 interventions
~ 5% get 6+ ODRs
~15% get 2-5 ODRs
~80% get 0-1 ODRs
How can ODR data be used?
wilderresearch.org
Individual data to be used for identification of
students for Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions
Summary data to be used for decision-making
and action planning: * Identify patterns, trends, changes over time, etc.
* Areas of success AND areas in need of improvement
ODR tracking spreadsheets
wilderresearch.org
Tool developed by Missouri PBIS
Two different spreadsheets
─ Aggregate (Big 5 Generator)
Tracks ODR Big 5 offenses School-wide
─ Individualized (Individual Data Collection Tool)
Tracks ODR data on an individualized basis
Big 5 Generator
Measures the “who, what, when, where
and how often”
Overall, big-picture view of ODR Data
Helps to plan school-wide interventions
wilderresearch.org
Features of the Big 5 Generator
wilderresearch.org
Per Day/Per Month Data Entry
─ How often problem behaviors are occurring
Behavior Data Entry
─What are the most frequent problem behaviors
Location Data Entry
─Where the problem behaviors are occurring
Time Data Entry
─When students are behaving inappropriately
Other features of the Big 5 Generator
wilderresearch.org
Triangle Graph
─ Charts the percentage of students with 2-5 ODRs and
6 or more ODRs (cumulative for the year)
─ Can help catch students who qualify for Tier II and
Tier III interventions early.
Other Features of the Big 5 Generator
wilderresearch.org
Monthly/Cumulative Graphs
─ Allows you to choose graphs you would like to print
and add to presentations
Per Day Generator
─ Calculates the median, 25th percentile, and 75th
percentile for a school with your enrollment and
compares it to SWIS national data.
Individual Data Collection Tool
wilderresearch.org
Collects individual student ODR data
Provides aggregated (school-wide) and
disaggregated (individual) graphs
Designed to summarize ODR data in a variety of
ways in addition to Big 5
Features of the Individual Data Collection Tool
wilderresearch.org
Big 5 Charts (who, what, where, when, how often)
─ Helps with Tier I interventions
Major ODR per student
─ Charts students by their student number
Majors: Digging Deeper
─ Allows to chart student behavior based on a variety
of factors
─ Can help catch students who qualify for Tier II and
Tier III interventions early
Other features of the Individual Data
Collection Tool
wilderresearch.org
Minors (Big 5)
─ Help with early identification of students who might
“fly under the radar” because they do not have any
major incidents
