  • Using data to improve the quality of education in most cases includes the use of data for three pillars of school improvement: curriculum, assessment, and instruction.

    “In a data team study, Poortman and Schildkamp (2016) discovered that using data to improve the quality of education in most cases includes the use of data for three important pillars of school improvement”

    From Data-based decision-making for school improvement: Research insights and gaps (2019) · cites this paper as Poortman and Schildkamp 2016

    Section 6.3 (Implications for practice; page unavailable) identifies curriculum, assessment, and instruction as three school-improvement pillars. It says that subject-focused teams that solved their problems took measures in these areas and suggests that attending to all three improves their chances of success. It does not establish that data use includes all three in most cases. (LLM, conf=0.87)

  • Data-based decision-making can contribute to increased student learning and achievement.

    “Research has suggested that data-based decision-making (data use) can contribute to increased student learning and achievement (e.g. Lai et al. 2014; McNaughton, Lai, and Hsaio 2012; Poortman and Schildkamp 2016; Van Geel et al. 2016).”

  • Several schools were able to solve their problem and improve student achievement through the data team intervention.

    “It was reported that several schools were able to solve their problem and improve student achievement (Poortman and Schildkamp 2016).”

  • When teachers use DBDM effectively, this can lead to improved student learning and achievement.

    “When teachers use DBDM effectively, this can lead to improved student learning and achievement”
  • Much work on teachers' data literacy, including Mandinach and Gummer's, has tended to focus on teachers' data use in relation to teaching, instructional improvement, or student academic performance.

    “Secondly, it appears that much work on teachers’ data literacy, including that of Mandinach and Gummer, has tended to focus on teachers’ data use in relation to teaching (e.g., Beck et al., 2020; Datnow et al., 2012) and instructional improvement (e.g., Datnow et al., 2021; Kerr et al., 2006; Wachen et al., 2018) or in relation to student academic performance (e.g., Poortman & Schildkamp, 2016; St”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
