Lifting Student Agency, Goal Setting, & Inclusive Learning for English Learners Data Visualizations
Developing a robust data culture is key to improving outcomes and experiences for English learners/ multilingual students in educational systems. This professional learning series builds the capacity of educators to integrate the English Learner Roadmap Principles into a data culture that accurately explores the experiences and the academic/linguistic outcomes of all typologies of language learners, such as such as elementary, secondary, and dual language.
The data resources and tools provided in this series foster powerful data conversations, enabling educators to identify key trends and patterns for effective academic and linguistic instructional design and interventions. Furthermore, data analysis and collaboration regarding the experiences of students and families build the capacity of elementary educators to design environments and opportunities that increase student agency and foster a sense of belonging.
