How do you use data protocols in your school or system? Using a protocol to examine data is an important tool to guide data-driven decisions. Read the article from the National School Reform Faculty (NSRF) found as a PDF below in this module (Data-Driven Dialogue). Practice a “Root Cause” discussion protocol with a colleague or team, using real student performance data.
In this discussion, report back on how effective this approach was to guide your next steps. There are many other available data protocols. Please share any other data protocols you’ve used or found that may help others as they develop questioning processes to effectively and efficiently lead data discussions.
