  1. Tools of the Trade Using tools to effectively analyze your data Kristen Tompeck Marianne Oakes

  2. Objectives Share a variety of data analysis tools Provide examples for each tool Discuss the advantages and limitations of each tool

  3. Quick share What is the “state” of data at your school?

  4. Data User Stereotypes…

  5. Why use data in the first place?

  6. “An undefined problem has an infinite number of solutions.” Robert A. Humphrey

  7. Data gives us the

  8. What can we consider data? Summative assessments (OAKS, report card grades, graduation rates) Formative assessments (quizzes, exit tickets, homework Classroom observations (running records, notecards, rubrics, etc.) Attendance records Behavior records, incident records, discipline referrals

  9. Improving Decision-Making via Problem Solving

  10. Precise What do the data say? Primary 55% of fifth-grade Riverdell students are scoring below the 50th percentile on easyCBM PRF at Winter Benchmark. 39 of 70 fifth-graders, or 55% are scoring below the 50th percentile on easyCBM PRF at Winter Benchmark. Skill deficits range from lack of prosody to the inability to read multi-syllabic words. Motivation does not appear to be an issue.

  11. Break it down… • Primary  Jamaal is struggling to read second-grade material. What do the data say? Precise  Jamaal is struggling to decode words with r-controlled vowels and multi-syllabic words. His fluency falls between 35 and 45 cwpm and is a product of his decoding issues. His phrasing is appropriate when he can read the words.

  12. Your turn…What additional data would you need to write a more precise statement?. According to winter Benchmark data, the number of second-grade students at “some risk” of reading failure is increasing. Some students at “low risk” in fluency do not have adequate comprehension.

  13. Data Considerations… What do we need to consider when working with data?

  14. Data Considerations Do the data reveal patterns or trends? Do the data raise new questions? Do we need more information? What about outliers or irregularities? What cautions should be considered?

  15. The Tools: Process & Procedures Wagon Wheel Quadrant Analysis Ishikawa Fishbone Force Field Analysis

  16. Wagon Wheel

  17. Wagon Wheel Gives big picture view Compares many variables at once across several classrooms/grades Visually depicts relationships among variables Lots to discuss

  18. Wagon Wheel Procedure: Determine variables, gather data Set scale, phrase all performance standards so highest percent is the outer circle Plot points, connect points for easier analysis

  19. Wagon Wheel Template • Key Variables • 1. • 2. • 3. • 4. • 5. • 6. • 7. • 8. • Possibilities for Analysis • Grade level • Teachers • Student groups/subgroups • Domains/strands • Grades • Courses • Instructional Strategies-Training • Instructional Strategies-Implementation • Years (trends) 8 2 2 7 3 3 6 4 Wagon Wheel Template 5 1 S - 27

  20. 1 Students at Low Risk in winter Students making adequate progress Actual vs. allocated time Time in small group instruction Lesson plans with active engagement Instruction in 5 big ideas Participation in grade-level collaboration Objectives clearly articulated to students

  21. Wagon Wheel in Excel Other Charts  Radar

  22. Quick Share How might you use this tool?

  23. Quadrant Analysis

  24. Quadrant Analysis Variable 2 Variable 1 Compares two variables Student oriented Indicates instructional groups

  25. Quadrant Analysis Variable 2 Variable 1 Procedure: Choose two related variables, collect data Use data to group students

  26. Quadrant Analysis Literacy Comprehension Fluency

  27. Quadrant Analysis Math Algebraic Thinking (OAKS) Statistics (OAKS)

  28. Quick Share How might you use this tool?

  29. Ishikawa Fishbone

  30. Ishikawa Fishbone Graphic organizer Analyzes cause &effect relationships Sorts causes into those we can affect and those we can’t Identifies goal Accessible

  31. Ishikawa Fishbone Procedure: Identify area of weakness or desired outcome Identify root causes Determine teacher affected causes Use identified causes to determine goals “Catch & Release”

  32. Effect Determine area of concern or desired outcome Causes Identify causes, differentiate teacher affected causes

  33. Ishikawa Fishbone: Wallowa

  34. Quick Share How might you use this tool?

  35. Force Field Analysis

  36. Force Field Analysis • Identifies driving and restraining forces and related action steps • Prioritizes forces • Accessible, linear

  37. Force Field Analysis Procedure: • Define the desired change • Brainstorm driving and restraining forces • Prioritize forces • Identify action steps

  38. Quick Share How might you use this tool?

  39. The Right Tool for the Job… Which tool would you choose? Why? Scenario 1 The math teachers administered the EasyCBM Fall Benchmark. Overall , students performed poorly and well below teacher expectations. The teachers are not sure where to begin.

  40. The Right Tool for the Job… Which tool would you choose? Why? Scenario 2 The high school English teachers have been working on writing intensively for the past month. One class continues to struggle to be as successful as the other classes and over the last three assessments, scored significantly lower. It is concerning the entire department.
