Reporting the Data • Reporting the data is the “accountability” and “action” part of the process • Create meaning out of data • Make the data work for you and your unit.
Reporting Questions • Create meaning • What is obvious in the date? • Ambiguous? • What recommendations/actions would you make based on the analysis of assessment data? - Take a position/make a decision.
