Content related More classroom-related examples “More pieces of data to look at and understand or data that I already have.” “Have teachers share specific examples of how they collect data and interpret progress.” “Making it more relevant for the classroom teacher. This was more of a module to understand types of data not put data to use in the classroom.” “It is very critical that teachers obtain some very specific strategies in developing and analyzing classroom data that will help teachers determine mastery level of their students. Most data collected in the classroom is about grading. For teachers to better provide students with appropriate interventions in a timely matter, they need to learn how to determine student mastery using their formative and summative data collected in the classroom . • More actual practice given. • Add more resources
Content related EVAAS “EVAAS references are great but if a District has done little to no work with exposing this information to teachers, they will be lost. There is minimal information on EVAAS and its required usage for leading change in schools. A quick handout or reference to a time table for it's release in NC would be helpful.” Collaboration/PLCs “I would like to do the next one with our school PLC. That way I can hear others answers to the questions and grow as a beginning teacher, but it would be interesting to see more answers, perhaps from leading educators in our field for the questions asked of us.”
