How to Be Systemic and Site-Based: Using Professional Development to Improve Data Use


Many school districts seek to be both systemic and site-based in their reform approach. What does this mean in practice? Join us for the next Bay Area Education Leaders Forum (EdForum) as we examine this question in relation to professional development approaches that improve how schools use data and information:

  • How can districts help schools use student achievement data to drive improvement?
  • How can schools help teachers use assessment results to improve instruction?
  • How can these approaches be connected and supported in systemic ways?
