Event Information

DESCRIPTION: Student data is only helpful if you have a system in place for working with your data. This 3-hour session will allow you the opportunity to map out your system and learn ways that PVAAS growth and student projection data can enhance each season of the school year. Whether you are analyzing trends, planning for current students’ needs, monitoring student progress, supporting instructional practices, or preparing for an upcoming year, PVAAS growth and projection data can support your work. During the session you’ll be deciding how, when, and why PVAAS and other data will be used by administrators, teachers, parents, and students. By the end of the session, participants will have created a plan for analyzing their data across the year. NOTE: when registering for this event you will automatically be entered for the morning session. You will be promoted to select an afternoon Option. OPTION A : Improve Your Year with Projections (Part 1- 12:30 pm to 1:50 pm) You will be amazed at the number of ways in which district and school leaders can incorporate PVAAS Projection data into the decisions they make about professional growth, observations and walk-throughs, and creating master schedules and individual student schedules. There are even ways that PVAAS Projection data can influence your hiring decisions and resource allocations. This session will offer participants the opportunity to analyze their PVAAS Projection Data through a variety of lenses. Collaborative Conversations (Part 2 - 2:10 pm to 3:30 pm) During this session a PVAAS team member will facilitate a conversation with school and/or district leaders from the local IU region. Leaders will describe ways in which they use PVAAS and other data points to support their decision-making in a variety of situations. Time will be allotted for questions from participants and collaboration among your peers. OPTION B: Rethinking Assessment and Equity (12:30 PM TO 3:30 PM) Assessment takes a step toward equity by unveiling what students need at that moment in their educational path. Rethinking assessment means finding solutions that assist educators to know the student, promote high expectations for all, help students know their learning story, create flexible routines for personalized learnings, teach failure as a step in the learning process; and build a culturally responsive environment. In speed-geeking style, participants will discuss these topics and seek real solutions to revising the assessment system in their respective settings. Connections to the Classroom Diagnostic Tool, the Danielson Framework, and The Universal Design for Learning will be made.
