January 26, 2010

Nationally recognized experts developed the What Works Clearinghouse new data based decision-making guide released in fall 2009.  It consists of actionable recommendations and strategies for implementing effective classroom decision-making. The guide offers five recommendations to help educators use data to monitor academic progress and evaluate instructional practices. The guide recommends creating a data based driven culture by establishing a clear vision for data use, frequent and ongoing use of data in the classroom, and making data core to ongoing instructional improvement.
