WestEd advances a secure AI-powered tool

Circular infographic titled “Domains for Rapid School Improvement” surrounded by a ring labeled “Turnaround & Improvement Efforts.” Four overlapping circles arranged around the center represent the domains: Top, Turnaround Leadership: prioritize improvement and communicate urgency; monitor short and long term goals; customize and target support to meet needs. Right, Talent Development: recruit, develop, retain, and sustain talent; target professional learning opportunities; set clear performance expectations. Bottom, Instructional Transformation: diagnose and respond to student learning needs; provide rigorous evidence-based instruction; remove barriers and provide opportunities. Left, Culture Shift: build a strong community intensely focused on student learning; solicit and act upon stakeholder input; engage students and families.
