Leading and Sustaining a Data-Informed Culture<br />
What are the leadership actions needed to support student learning<br />
through the implementation of data-informed school and district cultures?<br />
Never before have the demands for academic achievement been as pressing for educators and as<br />
imperative for students. In the Common Core Standards-driven curriculum, instruction, and assessment<br />
environment, research overwhelmingly verifies that the most powerful way to increase student learning<br />
and motivation is through the implementation of data-informed decision making. This full day session is<br />
designed as an overview of the rationale for and leadership actions required for building, leading and<br />
sustaining a data-informed culture within your school. During this full day session, participants will:<br />
• Explore the rationale for creating and sustaining a data-informed culture that supports real-world,<br />
student-involved learning and achievement<br />
• Recognize that in order to be a data-informed culture, educators must identify the intended Depth of<br />
Knowledge (DOK) found within each standard and use that to align instruction and assessment<br />
• Determine the need for a school/building-wide balanced assessment system including formative and<br />
summative assessments used by and with students to chart progress toward standards<br />
• Understand that in order to sustain a data-informed culture, educators must build and execute a plan<br />
for all stakeholders that includes a well articulated, multi-phased approach to standards, assessment,<br />
and learning for all.<br />
