Very Informative Book! Any educator interested in examining factors that contribute to low student achievement will appreciate the step by step analysis process recommended by the author. By looking at existing programs and casting aside those that do not address issues at hand, the author offers a variety of real-life examples to model a better planning and problem-solving approach. With templates and graphic organizers to help make sense of data, educators can more clearly see the "what" and "how" of using data effectively and efficiently. It's useful and practical, just like education--and educators--need to be. | ||
Easy to read and understand This text is actually written in language that educators can understand, even if they aren't especially data-savy. The guidelines for incorporating data for school improvement are actually practical and easy to replicate. A great guide for joining the data-driven school improvement movement! | ||
