5. What is the Data Team Protocol?

6. Secondary Data Team Protocol Notes • Notes • 30 to 45 minutes • Organization of team • Recorder • Time Keeper • Norms Enforcer • Etc. • Works Best when data is collected and formatted for analysis in advance

11. Preparing for the Activity • Define Data Teams (table groups) for Activity • 4 to 6 in each • Choose which teacher you will be for the day • Mr. Watson • Ms. Buck • Mr. Feynman • Mr. Mulliken • Choose one standard to target = 6PS3.3

12. Target Standard is 6PS3.3 6PS3.3 Represent probabilities as ratios, proportions, decimals between 0 and 1, and percentages between 0 and 100 and verify that the probabilities computed are reasonable; know that if P is the probability of an event, 1 - P is the probability of an event not occurring.

13. Preparing for the Protocol • Opening • Choose Roles • Leader/Facilitator • Timekeeper • Recorder • Process Monitor • Review Norms • Arrange for collection of data

20. Data Analysis • Examine students work • Analysis Tools • Strengths & Obstacles • Wrong Answers Analysis • Data Circle • RTQ Sequencing • Observation • Look for patterns

21. Analyze Strengths and Obstacles

22. Wrong Answer Analysis

23. Data Circle Simple Data Immersion Data team collaboratively Move clockwise with each member sharing thoughts about her/his data Record & Discuss

25. Analyze Strengths and Obstacles

26. Define Problem • Simple statement of the problem • What the process has to solve • Not a fix or cure • May be explicit or general • e.g., students aren’t consistently correctly solving simple probability problems • May be refined as you go

28. Determine Cause • Always treat the CAUSE not the symptom • Tools for determining CAUSE • Collaborative Insight • Affinity Protocol • Once CAUSE is determined, the cure becomes more obvious

29. Affinity Protocol—Purpose To explore the CAUSE of a problem Allows ALL team members to participate in generating hypothesized causes

30. 10 Min Affinity Protocol—Steps 1 to 3 • Team leader states problem • 5 min: Independently brainstorm hunches and hypotheses about what might be the causes of the problem. Individuals write each idea on separate post it and stick them in the center of the table. • 3 min: Move “Have No/Little Control” causes to the side. Sort remaining items into categories (Discussion).

31. Wrong Answer Analysis

32. 10 Min Affinity Protocol—Step 4 • 2 min—Choose top three CAUSES for the problem (in order). Remember that the best causes are ones that are • Things the school HAS control over • Things the team believes that, if fixed, would have the biggest impact in fixing the problem
