Overview
Start
This module supports leadership teams in the process of using relevant data to ensure deeper learning for students.
The module concentrates on Area 1: Data and the Decision-Making Process, which emphasizes the importance of:
- Identifying, collecting, analyzing and effectively using relevant data to identify the greatest problems to be addressed and to create the kind of culture and expectation that supports effective data-based decision making at all levels of the system.
- Developing shared accountability by broadening the concept of accountability to include "internal" measures that hold all adults accountable for improved student performance, rather than only external accountability imposed from outside.
- Using data to continuously monitor adult implementation and student progress against performance targets and district-established goals.
- Addressing achievement and growth, and in getting past opinion through the use of evidence-based practices
This module aligns with Ohio's Leadership Development Framework:
- Area 1: Data and the Decision-Making Process
