Good grief. Should we also tell them to stay away from the road because of the dangerous cars? Sounds like another way to deny kids an increasingly important 21C literacy.

Apologies - I thought you were advocating for the bulleted section of the article.

Thanks. My general rule of thumb is to only advocate for continual improvement through on-going learning. I consider myself to be pretty tech-savvy and was SHOCKED to learn that GPS coordinates get auto-embedded in images. I'd never considered this before and don't consider the extra information (GPS coordinates that can easily be mapped to an exact location) something that "should be" (yet it is) made available to anyone who can view a picture. In other words, let's say, I'm super careful to not include identifying information in my photos (my name, school name, city landmarks, etc) and take a picture of say, my stereo system. I've now included with this image the exact coordinates for where my home (with stereo) is located. Now a potential thief has this information (w/Google Map directions). It's super hard to be intentional about all of our choices and actions (including using GPS data w/cell phone images). That said, the more we all know, the more each of us is able to make decisions that best align with our own views, values and understandings. It's one thing for an adult to make a decision or not make a decision about inclusion of GPS data in their cell phone taken images, it takes another level of consideration when it involves giving that capability to children. THANK YOU for helping me to capture and better articulate my thoughts in this area!

Resources for understanding and performing qualitative data analysis. Very useful as schools are forced to look more and more at data, and need a way for teachers to effectively use that data to impact instruction.

QDA has become a growing factor in our school system. The data teachers collect and analyze spans from written tests, student response data, individual curricular modules, grade book analytics, state tests, national tests and more. Many teachers are overwhelmed with assessment and data. This site is a wonderful resource to keep in our pockets so that assessment methods and data collected have a quality aspect and can be used as a solid directional arrow for instruction. Much appreciated.
