Using Data Dialogues to Promote Accountablity, Goal Setting, and Reflection: Data dialogues, when done immediately after testing windows close, are an essential way for teachers and instructional leadership teams to thoughtfully and strategically reflect on student progress and their instructional practices. During this session, participants will hear from two elementary school principals who have created a systematic approach to putting data at the center in order to build a culture of accountability and promote coherence and collaboration. This session will emphasize the importance of promoting teacher reflection and goal setting with student data to assist with strategically planning for future instruction to accelerate student achievement.
