The Plan-Do-Study-Act-Process

Better Math Teaching Network teacher Amanda conducts her Plan Do Study Act (PDSA) testing in the classroom. PDSA testing is a quick-cycle improvement method where teachers can test and refine strategies within and across lessons, realizing improvements every few weeks. In her PDSA testing, Amanda wanted to see students making more connections between math concepts and deepening their understanding of the math.
