Data Culture Matters
Data is all the rage in public education reform discussions. Alvo Participants Discuss Data
Districts, school leaders and teachers are under pressure to make “data driven decisions”, but often without the support, tools and training they need to build effective data capacity and cultures.
The Alvo Institute’s research has proven that effective data infused schools with high student achievement demonstrate mastery in three key areas which we call The Data Fundamentals: Data Management, Data Use and Data Attitudes & Perceptions.
The Alvo Institute works closely with educational organizations to develop deep cultures of data where student achievement can thrive. We help schools and organizations move from a needs assessment, into tactical planning, to implementation and finally to ongoing evaluation of a school’s overall data program.
“We as teachers need to realize that student data
empowers us as teachers and should actually
make our jobs easier if we know how to use it.”
