Discussion 4
Data in Action
Directions
In this Discussion Board, you will look at the use of data and factors that support growth essential to student achievement and standards-based teaching and learning.
Figure 9.3 (Indicators of Standards-Based Teaching and Learning p.160 in the Text: Getting More Excited About Using Data) lists 15 attributes that were compiled to provide a more complete understanding of standards-based teaching and learning.
Figure 1.2 (Sources of Data, p.11 in the text: Getting More Excited About Using Data) lists 30 different sources of data that are useful in addressing important aspects of teaching and learning.
You have been asked by your building administrator to participate on a task force to identify why the school is seeing two years of declining scores in the area of English Language Arts (ELA) or Math. In the Discussion Board post the following:
Identify if you have chosen to serve on the ELA team or the Math team.
What three to five indicators from Figure 9.3 would you want the team to explore in order to determine why there is a decline in the scores?
Share each indicator chosen from Figure 9.3 and explain why you believe the data source would help the school make improvement decisions to facilitate increased student performance.
Match the appropriate sources of data from Figure 1.2 that would guide the team in determining data points for decision making and planning based upon the three to five indicators you selected from Figure 9.3.
What would the data sources tell you about students, their learning and their instructional needs?
Discussion 5
ffective School-Wide Leadership
Directions
Leadership is not a one size fits all process. Leaders come to their role with different skills, different abilities and different levels of needed growth. In the discussion, you will look at how leadership models matched with personal style, behaviors, and skills are used to build a school-wide culture of leadership in schools. In this Discussion Board you will compare three different leadership philosophies and models. Before starting your Discussion Board posting, complete these three assessments from your textbook:
Your leadership style model (Figure 4.2 p. 93-94)
Your emphasis on task and relationship behaviors survey (Figure 5.2 p.111-112)
Your leadership skills survey (Figure 6.2 p.134-135)
In the Discussion Board, reflect on your results of each survey and discuss how the model and your style, behaviors and skills relate to each. You will share your strengths and weaknesses in style as it relates to each model.
How would you use these surveys?
What would you expect to do with the information to create a school-wide culture?
How would these surveys help you to identify the leaders within the school?
How would you classify the teachers into leadership groups to create a culture of leadership?
