Increasingly, districts achieving significant gains in student performance cite longitudinal data systems — systems that gather and track student data over time — as their key to success. For these districts, easy access to accurate, real-time, frequently gathered data enables them to inform collaborative planning, differentiate instruction and drive improvement.

At this webinar, you’ll hear first-hand from district leaders and education technology innovators from Albemarle County Public Schools and Wichita Public Schools, how they are using data systems to:

–	Provide their professional learning communities with formative and summative assessment data to inform differentiated instructional planning
–	Align standards-based curriculum, instruction and assessment programs to bolster continuous improvement initiatives
–	Analyze key data and performance indicators to make real-time shifts in pacing, intervention and enrichment
–	Provide classroom teachers with protocols to guide their use of data as an essential element in instructional practice

You’ll also get critical and actionable insights from attorney and ARRA expert, David DeSchryver, on how Title I and Title IID dollars can be tapped right now to acquire the technology, tools and training to implement a longitudinal data system in your district
