But They Haven’t Yet • 10 State Actions • Link P-20/W Data Systems (11 states) • Create stable, sustained support (27) • Develop governance structures (36) • Build data repositories (44) • Provide timely data access (2) • Create individual student progress reports (29) • Create longitudinal reports (36) • Develop research agenda (31) • Build educator capacity (3) • Raise awareness of available data (23) No state has all 10 Actions

  4. Teacher Effectiveness and Preparation Policies Require State Data Capacity • Teacher effectiveness policies • 23 states now require evidence of student growth in teacher evaluations • Federal policies are accelerating this need • RTT and TIF grant requirements • NCLB waiver requirements • Teacher preparation improvement policies • Programs want data about their graduates’ performance • Planned 2012 federal regulatory changes to HEA States are best positioned to leverage existing investments in longitudinal data systems to meet these needs.

  10. Additional Data Implications for Teacher Preparation Improvement • 27 states can link their TSDL to preparation • However, just 10 states leverage this link • Only 6 states are sharing teacher performance data with their in-state preparation programs States have much work left to do to support preparation program improvement and answer critical questions about effective pathways.
