Improvement science is a dynamic, methodological approach to problem-solving, based on the idea that the performance of some 'system' is a result of its design and operation, not simply a result of individuals' efforts within that system. An improvement science approach can be used to study and improve instructional methods, courses, programs, and processes, among many other contexts. This workshop will introduce participants to the improvement science model and principles, and approaches to improvement will be presented and participants will learn examples of improvement strategies they can begin to use to start to 'get better at getting better' (Bryk et al., 2015).
