Data analysis is a critical component of ESEA (Elementary and Secondary Education Act) – formerly NCLB

It’s an opportunity to use data to transform teaching and learning.

State Accreditation- Data analysis required for all schools

Standards – Data AnalysisBefore instruction and assessments can be developed, all educators need a clear understanding of what the standards look

like in student work and what measurable learning targets are required for students

to achieve mastery.

Content Standards doe.sd.gov Content Standards - L-hand menu

7.R.2.1 Students can interpret text using comprehension strategies. Learning targets to meet this standard:I can study or determine the relationship of the parts to the whole (interpret) by connecting, questioning, visualizing, determining importance, inferring, synthesizing, and monitoring for meaning (comprehension strategies). Examples: Determining the author’s purpose, cause and effect, compare and contrast, conclusions, facts or opinions, generalizations, graphics, hypotheses, inferences, supporting details, prior knowledge, or purpose for reading

Scientifically-based research strategies Specific strategies determined for each content

(reading/math) and each grade or grade cluster. Specific to student growth. Indicators to judge the effectiveness must be

noted. Assessments that track performance over time

(baseline, mid-year, end). Connect to your target standards on SIP

School Improvement Plan

All reflect back on the

SIP GOALS

• Staff has clarity in regard to what students must know, understand, and be able to do.

• The interventions are timely and may require, rather than invite, students to evoke the extra time and receive the additional support for learning.

• The focus on results is critical to both the school’s system of interventions and their culture of celebration.

• Teachers use results to identify strengths and weaknesses in their individual practice, to help each other address areas of concern, and to improve their effectiveness in helping all students learn.
