The Plan, Do, Study, Act (PDSA) cycle is the process that Pekin School District 108 uses to improve the quality of teaching and learning. The PDSA integrates both theory and practice to systematically create a more effective, data driven approach to show and sustain continuous improvement.

THE PDSA Process:

	The system (issue or activity) is defined. The current situation is assessed through the collection of data. The data is then analyzed to look for causes and possible solutions. An improvement theory and new action plan is created.

	Data is collected again to try out the improvement theory and new improvement plan.

	The results of the improvement plan are studied.

	Action is taken based on the new knowledge to standardize the improvement. Should this plan be implemented, modified, or abandoned? Next steps are then taken to continuously improve the system. .
