Integrating Data Into the Decision-Making Equation. - 1 views

  • As school districts embark on the change process, they face many barriers to the adoption of data-driven decision making. School district leaders have not embraced continuous improvement. Priorities are not clear and goals are not tied to measurable objectives. Data is not collected uniformly between organizations and over time. Outdated technology cannot be used effectively. Educators lack training to define data requirements and apply data. Stakeholders do not trust the data collected or how it will be used.
  • Reports need to be timely, tied to objectives, and available to people with the responsibility and ability to act on them. Data reports that show data in different ways such as tables, charts, graphs, and trends enable more people to access and understand the information. Some of the decisions that might be made with data reports include: Tracking student achievement for diagnosis and placement Changing beliefs and attitudes that all students can learn Guiding teacher professional development Linking interventions to results Using data to create school improvement plans and assess progress Allocating district resources
  • The IT infrastructure underpinning most data-driven decision making systems requires a significant investment in hardware, software, implementation, and maintenance.
  •  
    The successful integration of data into a district's decision-making process requires both a culture of change and a data management system to support change. Nice chart of progress quadrants included in the discussion.

Case Study: Using Data Mining to Analyze Student Behavior - 0 views

  •  
    A Louisiana district scours a year's worth of discipline reports for patterns. It occurred to Bowman that analyzing the reports could provide insight into the root causes of disciplinary problems--tardiness, dress code violations, fighting, vandalism, and more--as well as the effectiveness of how the schools deal with them, and how fairly discipline is enforced. The reports generally contain structured data, including demographic information such as the student's grade and age, and a written narrative that describes the infraction.

An Exploratory Analysis of School-Based Student Assessment Systems - 0 views

  •  
    This report addresses some of these issues by summarizing findings from an exploratory study of the school-based assessment practices in a sample of elementary, middle, and secondary schools. The purposes of the study were twofold: (1) to add to the growing base of knowledge about how schools use student assessment data obtained from multiple sources to inform important decisions about programs, instruction, and individual students; and (2) to identify and describe the factors and conditions that make schools' use of the student assessment data more probable and valuable.

The purpose of this study is to identify, quantify, and report on district-level processes that enable effective utilization of data to increase academic achievement at the classroom level.

Looking Back, Looking Forward / A Focus on Assessment - 1 views

  •  
    During the last 65 years, ASCD publications have charted the education profession's perennial quest to design and use assessments wisely. ASCD and its members have consistently urged clarity about the purposes of evaluation and advocated the use of assessments that are appropriate for their specific purposes. A thread that runs through six decades of writing about assessment is the belief that assessments should answer two questions: How are we doing? How can we do it better?

All About Assessment: The Mistaken Holy Grail - 0 views

  •  
    Assessment validity refers to the accuracy of a score-based inference about a test taker's status. This definition sounds pretty highbrow, but it really isn't. Educators are interested in getting a fix on students' knowledge and skills so they can make sensible instructional decisions about those students. But teachers can't tell how much a particular student knows merely by looking at the student. That's because students' cognitive skills and knowledge are covert. Accordingly, we test students so we can use their overt responses to the test to make an inference about what's covert. Tests aren't valid or invalid; inferences are.

Data-Driven Decision Making Gone Wild: How Do We Know What Data to Trust to Inform Deci... - 0 views

  •  
    It's not as easy as it looks to determine which schools are doing better than others. Two different criteria are relevant: is the difference in performance between two schools large enough to matter, which is sometimes termed educational significance or practical significance; and is the difference in performance between two schools real, or could it just be due to chance, which is typically described as statistical significance. Ideally, we are interested in differences that are both practically and statistically significant. But a difference could be large, but not statistically significant (which is often the case when we have a small sample of information about performance), or statistically significant, but very small (in which we are pretty sure that the difference is real, but it's just not very important). (Yes, statistical significance does matter!)

Closing the Achievement Gap: How Schools are Making It Happen - 0 views

  •  
    One of the most vexing problems in American education is the achievement gap. Schools and districts are tackling the problem in different ways and seeing results. The first step in dealing with the achievement gap is acknowledging that the problem exists. Yet not all districts break down student performance data to show how various racial and ethnic groups perform.
