    The Teaching Channel is "a thriving online community where teachers can watch, share, and learn diverse techniques to help every student grow." This module includes videos and handouts that you can view on your own or present to others. Objectives are to "develop an understanding of how to use multiple data sources, analyze data to trace the causes of low achievement and find solutions, and articulate how to support teachers' use of data to improve instruction."

    This article explains three sources of data information a teacher can collect to make instructional decisions. These data sources are: formative assessments, cumulative files and standardized test data. The formative assessments include quizzes, exit slips, and include anecdotal notes from classroom observations. These resources prove invaluable and will provide teachers with information to be better plan lessons that meet student needs.

    This article of edweek focuses on closing the gap in students' vocabulary. Vocabulary is key to reading and comprehension, and this article takes the approach that better conversation is they way to improve vocabulary. While it mainly seems geared towards elementary level students, I think the idea is worthwhile for all levels of students.

    This article offers strategies to early childhood educators as they are instructing English Language Learners in language and literacy development. Highlights in this article include instructional strategies, explicit vocabulary activities, exposing students to multiple opportunities to speak with both peers and adults, and encouraging language development inside and outside of the classroom.

    Remember the 65% solution? This article is from 2006, but the discussion about demonstrating student learning in the school library is still relevant. It describes a pilot program that sounds similar to Venables' data action model: "Using online tools, [librarians] continue a dialogue, exchange ideas, and provide critical support to one another as they strive to create evidence folders for their own school library media programs." Includes sample rubrics and graphs of outcomes.

    This article reports the results of a study of grade 2 students 7 - 8 years old) using game technology versus paper/pencil games and the effects of increased use of game technology on assessments. The study found that the students using the game technology had increased performance and that increased use of technology also increased student performance. Shin, N. Sutherland, L. M., Norris, C. A., & Soloway, E. (2012). Effects of game technology on elementary student learning in mathematics. British Journal of Educational Technology, 43(4), 540-560. doi:10.1111/j.1467-8535.2011.01197.x

    The study compares students (grade 4) that received traditional instruction to those who received computer assisted instruction (CAI) with traditional instruction for basic math facts. The results show that daily CAI positively effects student math achievement. This study is interesting in that students received 10 minutes of CAI to achieve these results.

    The study described in this article is very interesting because it relates to our group's Exploratory Question. We are trying to see if computer practice one or twice a week correlates to progress in students' mastering their addition and subtraction facts. As shown in the article, computer assisted instruction had a positive impact on the students' fluency of basic math facts.

    This article highlights the struggle that teachers face when "teaching to the test". As educators, we want to show our best qualities. However, that is limited when we must teach to the test. The quote I want to pull is "We are measuring temperature with a tablespoon"
