How to build a data warehouse that unifies your information infrastructure and meets the new accountability demands head-on

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.

This case study from the Consortium for School Networking (CoSN) provides an up-close look at how one of these trailblazers has established a sustainable strategy for data-driven decision making (DDDM).

One of the country's largest school districts has found great success in managing student records through a customized data warehousing, reporting, and analytics package. Teachers and administrators are extremely pleased with the tool, which helps them track the large and often transient student populations they serve in rapidly growing Hillsborough County, Florida.

Imagine the research possibilities if every student in the country carried a "virtual backpack" stuffed with statistics on his or her entire educational history. The data, traveling with students as they moved from school to school, could be used to update parents on their children's learning progress, register students in school, or import information when they moved to a new city or entered college.

There's a ton of data being collected. The trick is to know how to use it effectively.

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!)
