This is the first course is the series of courses called Data Driven Instruction. Through this course, we will learn what data driven instruction and how we can collect this data to use to inform our instruction as teachers.

 About This Course

Thank you for embarking on this journey. This course falls under the category Classroom Instruction. A teacher’s job involves making very important decisions from moment to moment that will lead students to success or failure. Imagine having a friend to support you with your decision making. Data is that friend who is going to help you strengthen your teacher practices to give your students the best. Through this course, we will examine the need to be data driven in our instruction as teachers. We will also understand how the collection and use of data makes us better teachers. Finally, we will learn multiple methods to collect student data that is holistic in nature.
