Table Discussion What was discussed in the first meeting? What were your biggest takeaways? What should we remember and apply for today?

Vision Reminder You envisioned…

Meaning… Timely, accessible, formative, integrated data for use at school sites to inform teaching and learning. This data will come from multiple sources and make connections across data sets

Prioritization Exercise What’s missing? Top 15 Must haves for school sites Top 15 Nice to have for school sites Top 3 Priorities overall (tape your priorities to the budget paper)

Priority Discussion What questions would you ask of this data? Who would use this at a school site? When? Why? What are the current sources of this data?

Prototype Analysis Thinking back to what you prioritized: – –Would this dashboard support your data priorities? – –What do you like? – –What would you change? – –What questions do you have? – –Pick the one you like best, and why (functionalities you prefer and how it would support your data needs)
