The Data is in the Details Workshop Series: Tackling Raw Datasets

The preparation of high-quality teachers is driven and informed by high quality data. The ability to access and engage with data inspires and empowers individuals to take purposeful collective action to foster an active culture of inquiry. Data empowerment is most effective when it addresses and dismantles issues of inequity.

Teacher Preparation Programs (TPPs) have a wealth of data—more data than we know what to do with. Transforming data from spreadsheets enables us to discover the impact it has on those it represents. The Data Empowerment Series aims to enable individuals to utilize data to support their Teacher Candidates. Presented in an engaging manner, these workshops are designed for anyone who is involved with TPP data—this means YOU! In these workshops, you will learn skills that will help you develop a culture of inquiry leading to data-informed decision making for program improvement. You will organize, explore, and analyze data to lead data conversations in different contexts for continuous improvement.
