Fidelity of Implementation Tools

MCPER has created two tools to measure the fidelity of implementation for Project GOAL, a dropout prevention intervention: 

Dropout Prevention Intervention Implementation Guide

The Dropout Prevention Intervention Implementation Guide provides practitioners and administrators with a framework of an evidence-based dropout prevention intervention to implement a research-based program, Project GOAL. The guide also provides an overview of Project GOAL and explains the importance of each intervention component. Examples illustrate how the intervention might look in a school setting.

Project GOAL Advisor Response Tool

The Project GOAL Advisor Response Tool provides examples of how a Project GOAL advisor can respond to student behaviors that demonstrate a risk of low engagement in school and, ultimately, of dropping out. Organized within schoolwide prevention responses and intervention responses, this tool presents actual advisors' responses to academic and behavioral risk factors that educators can implement to increase students' engagement in school, thus preventing them from dropping out.
