Implementation Integrity
Understanding integrity vs. fidelity
When discussing curriculum implementation, two terms are heavily used, implementation fidelity and implementation integrity. Fidelity suggests a rigid implementation approach where the curriculum is carried out precisely as it is written and laid out. Therefore, there is little flexibility for modifying content to suit the needs of your students. Implementation integrity provides a more flexible approach that allows teachers to change and adapt content materials to suit the needs and learning of the students. With a mindset toward integrity, teachers can adapt High-Quality Instructional Materials (HQIM) to support ALL learners in the classroom.
