Data Driven Instruction for Common Core

Learning

Learning Targets

• I understand the role that school and district leaders play in establishing and maintaining systems of data-driven instruction and inquiry.

• I can identify evidence of a culture that supports data driven processes that improve student achievement.

• I can explain the systems and structures necessary to implement and monitor the ongoing analysis of multiple choice and performance assessments aligned to the common core.

Expectations and Metrics

Local Superintendents... Principals...Work with principals to ensure that common assessments or performance tasks are available across the district which measure grade level progress on the Core as defined by NYSED Assessment Design Documents Hold principals accountable for establishing and monitoring regular analysis meetings (as defined by the DDI Implementation Rubric) and through which teachers make meaning out of student work/ data and plan next steps to solve for misconceptions and preconceptions. Hold principals accountable for consequential changes in teacher practice based on Action Plans which result from Analysis Meetings. Provide opportunities and accountability for principals sharing results of and reactions to analysis meetings following a protocol such as the Analysis Meeting Protocol.

Use the DDI Implementation Rubric to guide the management of the school schedule, teacher professional development, and school culture to ensurePeriodic common assessments and/or performance tasks which measure grade level progress on the Core as defined by NYSED Assessment Design DocumentsCohorts of teachers conduct test/task-in-hand analysis following a protocol such as the Analysis Meeting Protocol.All teachers are thoughtfully re-teaching/ adjusting teaching practice based on analysis of student progress against the Common Core

Evidence from Data Conference

EngageNY.org 6

Evidence of…

… relational trust

•Both teacher and leader’s opinions valued

“What does it tell you about students who

picked C?”

•Nonjudgmental

… clear roles and established norms

•Test in hand “do you have a copy?”

•Teacher and leader responsible for analysis

… a growth mindset

•No excuses“What do they need…”

•What was taught mattered

“I never taught them how to…”

•Positive Framing“They were halfway

there…”

… equity and urgency

•All business!

•Focus on most important concepts“…unless they are going to become 18th century

novelists…”

Case Study – EPIC Academy Charter High

School• Read the case study to identify structures, roles

and processes the school leadership put in place.

• Code the text: Use S - structure, R- clear role, P – process.

• Be prepared to discuss your findings and compare them to the practices at your own school.

Reflect on the Learning Targets

• I understand the role that school and district leaders play in establishing and maintaining systems of data-driven instruction and inquiry.

• I can identify evidence of a culture that supports data driven processes that improve student achievement.

• I can explain the systems and structures necessary to implement and monitor the ongoing analysis of multiple choice and performance assessments aligned to the common core.

Educator Preview

What is the EngageNY Portal?

• An instructional information system that:

allows authorized educators, students (grades 6 through 12), and their legal guardians (all grade levels) to log in and view student educational data through data dashboards

provides users with access to instructional and learning resources tagged to CCSS through the EngageNY website, and

enables educators to create secure online professional learning communities to share resources and collaborate with colleagues across the State, region, district, or school.

How will the Portal support implementation of NYS Common Core Learning Standards

(CCLS)?
