Practice Discuss: What do you see in the data? What questions do the data generate? What do you see over and over again in the data? What does the data not show us? What are the implications for our students? What are the implications for our teaching practice? 32

Step 1When analyzing data, begin with a question.How can we make AYP? What other timely, important questions? 33

Step 2Understand the data source What assessment is being described in this report? What are the characteristics of the assessment? Who participated in the assessment? Who did not? Why? Why was the assessment given? What do the terms in the data report mean? 34

Step 3Look for the ‘big picture.’What do we ‘see in the data?’What ‘jumps out?’What questions do the data raise? 35

Step 4A Look for data patterns in a single data source.What do you see over and over again in the data? What are the student’s strengths? What knowledge and skills do the students have? What are their weaknesses? What knowledge and skills do the students lack? 36

Step 4B Identify patterns of grade-level/class strengths and weaknesses from multiple data sources. Triangulation: In what ways are the data similar among data sources? SBA: scale score reports, item plots DBA: school & classroom exam reports Classroom assessments In what ways do the results among data sources differ? Why might these differences occur? What patterns do you see over and over from multiple sources of data? 37

Step 5 Drill down to individual students. Identify and implement needed interventions. What are the implications for interventions for what you learned from the data? Which students need interventions?What should interventions focus on? 38

Step 6Reflect on the reasons for student performance. What in our teaching might be preventing all students or a group of students from being successful? How will we change instruction in the next unit? Do we need professional development and/or support and/or collaboration to help us with the gaps? What do the data not tell us? 39

Data Director: School Exam Report Look at performance of different classes in single grade level Can identify areas of strength and weakness for instruction for team members and team as a whole Look at recent DBA results with SBA Item Plots to compare standards emphasis, student strengths and weaknesses 40

Follow-up discussion of School-level & Grade-level DBA data Which standards need the most attention? Which students are not meeting proficiency? By Class? By subgroup? Which students need interventions? How will we plan for them? What other questions are teachers asking about their students? 41

Classroom and Individual Student Reports-AIMS & Data Director With what standards will my students need help? Who are the students who will need intervention in these standards from last year? What else do we know about the areas in which these students need help? How can these students be most efficiently grouped for instruction? 42

Classroom Reports: Data Director & AIMS Find scores from Spring ‘10 DBA for current students Review recent & current scores from DBA testing What distinguishes the successful students from the unsuccessful ones? How do different subgroups perform on each of the standards? What teaching strategies are most associated with increases in achievement? Is there evidence of improvement or decline in performance and to what can it be attributed? Testing Calendar at:

Organizing for Data Dialogues How will you identify your data teams or goal teams? Grade-level Vertical Content What common time can you use to conduct data dialogues on a regular basis? 1 hour every 2 weeks, every week? How will you prioritize issues to be resolved? How will you communicate this to all members of the staff? How will you use results of dialogues? Identify enrichments and interventions for students Plan upcoming daily instruction 44
