The Power of Data: Making Data Useable and Relevant to Drive School Achievement
In order to build the right support structures for students and schools, we need timely, accurate, and useable data, and need to pair that with the know-how to make the data actionable and to monitor progress over time. Led by Diplomas Now, a collaboration of three national nonprofits - Johns Hopkins University's Talent Development Secondary, City Year and Communities In Schools - This session will focus on how to effectively use data through activities designed to help participants interpret and make student support decisions based on real-time data and building-level data trends. During this workshop, participants will take part in a mock “Early Warning Indicator (EWI) Meeting,” which provides the opportunity to understand the types of data that helps identify students who need additional support, and work together to find the best solutions for each student. This process, through a recent national study, has been proven to decrease the number of EWIs among at-risk students.
