Now That You Have Your Data...
Your Personal Data
Starting in February, we will hold individual data meetings. We will speak to teachers and when we walk through or pass students in the hall, we will talk to them as well about their progress. Please be prepared to answer the following:
- Do you know if the students you are teaching are growing in a positive way?
- If not, how can you find out?
- If they are growing in a negative way, what are you willing to do to change this?
- Do you know how this happens (positive/negative growth contributors)?
- What practices are you willing to change?
