Phases of Collaborative
Inquiry
Adapted from N. Love
The goal is to increase student achievement
Engage in a collaborative discourse about data using relevant, timely data
Discussion of data requires a structured approach
Focus on using NECAP data to assess school level achievement by looking for trends and patterns
1. OBSERVE
2. DISCUSS
3. ACTION STEPS
4. REFLECT
1. OBSERVE DATA– Look at the data with your colleagues
– What do you notice?• What do the numbers look like?
• Do you see any patterns or trends?
• What information does the report give you?
– Make objective statements about the data. • Avoid statements like, “It seems…” or “I think…”
2. DISCUSS– Talk with your colleagues at your table.
– Why do think the data might look this way?• Wording of the item?
• Type of item?
• Misconceptions?
3. ACTION STEPS― What are some other sources that could confirm or
refute this data?
― Based on the data, what are some conclusions you might draw about curriculum and instruction?
― How can I dig deeper?
4. REFLECTION (time permitting)
– What did you learn from this activity?
– Are there new things that you’d like to bring back to your school?
– Do you want to learn more about using data to inform educational decisions?
NECAP reports are one source of data.
Look to other sources of data to confirm or refute your hypotheses.
Using data as a conversation starter.
Plan for professional development around data use in the 2012–13 and 2013–14 school years.
• RIDE recognized the need for PD on data use
• Funded through RTTT
• Cohorts of leadership teams from schools and districts
• RIDE and vendor will create and implement needs assessment, PD series, and materials
• Tailored training + in-district support
