2. Understanding Data and Its Importance

 

 

Think about the data you have access to in your teaching role.

  • What types of data do you regularly collect or have access to? (e.g., assessment results, attendance records, behavior data, student feedback)
  • How do you currently use this data to inform your teaching? (e.g., to identify gaps in learning, track student progress, make decisions)
  • Are there any ways you could use data more effectively or efficiently? (e.g., by using data analysis tools, collaborating with colleagues, or seeking professional development)

Take a few minutes to reflect on these questions and jot down your thoughts in your notes.
