Anne Wicks; Amanda Wirtz – George W. Bush Institute, 2024

Van Gasse, Roos; Vanhoof, Jan; Van Petegem, Peter – Educational Studies, 2018
The contribution of data use in schools has been proven via visible changes in policy and practice in schools (instrumental effects), changes in practitioners learning or cognition (conceptual effects) and changes in opinions or attitudes regarding teaching or policy-making (symbolic effects). Nevertheless, limited research is available on the…

Further, strong equity-oriented data use cultures are challenging to establish. The purpose of this paper is to engage these cultural tensions. Design/methodology/approach: The data…

Van Gasse, Roos; Vanlommel, Kristin; Vanhoof, Jan; Van Petegem, Peter – School Effectiveness and School Improvement, 2017

Northwestern New Mexico is widely known as the Four Corners region, and for locals, it is also known as the Checkerboard area--a patchwork of sections owned by the federal government, private citizens, and the Navajo reservation. Oil and gas fields are spread out along the arid mesas, but below is fertile farmland, irrigated by the San Juan River.…

Jimerson, Jo Beth; Cho, Vincent; Wayman, Jeff – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2016
A recent trend in data-informed continuous improvement efforts is the practice of student-involved data use (SIDU), wherein teachers guide students in tracking and analyzing their own learning data. However, as SIDU is a newer emphasis in educational data use, research is scarce as to how teachers (preservice or veteran) develop the knowledge and…
