There is agreement among researchers and policy makers that child welfare services have been slow to effectively implement ESIs. The authors argue that ‘implementation matters’ and present empirical evidence for the impact of high quality implementation on program outcomes. The chapter examines a variety of issues that make implementation a complex and difficult endeavour in child welfare settings. The authors discuss ways to improve implementation through the use of common elements of interventions and supporting planned and appropriate adaptation of interventions in the service setting, as well as utilizing frameworks of implementation to guide implementation efforts. Finally, the authors identify critical components of implementation such as staff recruitment and selection, staff training and support, intervention and related staff evaluation.Less

This chapter outlines the studio recording of the album E.S.P., the first album where the members of the Davis quintet steered away from their hard bop roots. It first provides a brief overview of the innovations made during the studio recording, mainly emphasizing the reliance on slow harmonic rhythm, softer dynamic range, and a heightened use of space. It examines the singles “Iris”, “Little One”, “E.S.P.”, and “Agitation”, and analyzes their harmonic progressions and chorus structure. It also examines the individual harmonies from the standpoint of underlying modal/scalar collections, showing how some of the harmonic progressions reflect modal changes that shift by a single pitch.Less
