Do you find yourself recreating the wheel every time you need to collect information on your students? Is it a tedious paper/pencil approach? Or perhaps you are a pro at setting up your own Google Sheets but struggle to visualize the data in a meaningful and useful way? If that sounds familiar, then this add-on is for you! The primary purpose of our add-on is to give you a way to build an effective and efficient process to collect, analyze and visualize your student data. You will easily set up a system that collects standardized or individualized data and then create beautiful graphs and tables that can easily communicate student achievement, point systems, progress on IEP goals, behavioral data, or intervention monitoring.
Why should student data be collected?
To confidently analysis the progress of your students over the school year
To isolate time periods, days of weeks, time of year or other factors that are causing your students to struggle
To establish interventions to help your students achieve success by determining:
Who requires interventions
What interventions should be implemented
When they should be implemented
Were they effective
What can happen without student data?
We risk continuing an ineffective intervention when no changes have occurred
Or worse, discontinuing an effective intervention when improvement was not perceived
What kind of data can our add-on collect?
Classroom expectations
Positive behaviors expected to be demonstrated in the classroom.
Based on the Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) framework.
Social emotional skills
Being able to understand and manager emotions and how to related to others.
Based on the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) framework.
Target behaviors
Specific behaviors chosen to be improved or changed through intervention.
How to start?
Decide what type of data to measure for each student?
Determine how to define each type?
Make sure your definitions are clear, concise and objective.
Understand the best way to measure each response?
Only some measures can be easily analyzed!
