Course 7 - Using Data to Drive Instruction in Science
Course Description:
How can you utilize student data to drive your instruction from the beginning to the end of a unit? In this course, we will investigate how to use qualitative and quantitative data to guide how and what you teach.
Topics Addressed:
- Summative and formative assessments
-Teaching as Leadership (TAL) / TFA Cycle of Reflection
-Methods of collecting and evaluating quantitative and qualitative data
-Skills for identifying the root causes of current data
-Identifying and implementing solutions to improve student outcomes
Immediate Application in the Classroom:
-Learn how to develop formative and summative assessments that facilitate data-driven instruction
-Learn how to utilize the TAL/TFA Cycle of Reflection to collect and analyze data, identify the root cause(s) of results and implement solutions to improve student outcomes
