Data Analysis Services
What does it take to look at data and use it to inform instruction? Take a look at our approach:
Studying student data does NOT raise test scores…
Ed Week reports that “rigorous empirical research doesn’t support [current data practices]” — not because we should not use data to drive instruction, but the cursory look at data that normally accompanies the improvement process is ineffective.
So, what does work?
Data is a step to achieving equity — but to use data effectively, we have to suspend belief, step away from our own biases, and listen to the story it tells us.
Let us compile your disparate sources of data into a data dashboard that allows you to make informed decisions by asking questions and letting you find answers around trends specific to your context.
Our Data Analysis Services
Districts went from having a lack of data, to multiple sources, each housed in a variety of formats and locations. We offer everything from a one-time request as a thought partner to helping you set up a sustainable long-term solution through real-time integration of your SIS, survey, and achievement data.
One-Time Request
We can help answer a single question. For example, “What is the correlation of grades to summative achievement data in our district?”
Data Dashboard
We can take your disparate data sources and put them into accessible dashboards for measurable and trackable district improvement plans.
Full Long-Term Systematic Support
We partner with educational platforms to empower your district with actionable data after our work together ends.
