There are several decision-making models. See the resource list for sources. The model selected will impact parts of the organization and structure of the plan which follow. Identify decision-makers within the learning community. As the action steps are delineated, these members of the learning community will take responsibility for decisions within specific action goals.
Communication is essential to the success of the plan.
Decisions should be made as to what information needs to be shared, how it will be shared, and with whom it will be shared. Each member of the learning community is directly involved in and responsible for the learning of all community members. As the action plans are made, specific roles and responsibilities should be identified. A timeline for the entire plan is critical. This timeline will provide information about what occurs each year during the plan.
