Answer:

As educators face increasing pressure

from federal, state, and local accountabil-

ity policies to improve student achieve-

ment, the use of data has become more

central to how many educators evaluate

their practices and monitor students’ aca-

demic progress.1 Despite this trend, ques-

tions about how educators should use data

to make instructional decisions remain

mostly unanswered. In response, this

guide provides a framework for using stu-

dent achievement data to support instruc-

tional decision making. These decisions

include, but are not limited to, how to

adapt lessons or assignments in response

to students’ needs, alter classroom goals

or objectives, or modify student-grouping

arrangements. The guide also provides

recommendations for creating the orga-

nizational and technological conditions

that foster effective data use. Each rec-

ommendation describes action steps for

implementation, as well as suggestions

for addressing obstacles that may impede

progress. In adopting this framework, edu-

cators will be best served by implement-

ing the recommendations in this guide

together rather than individually.

The recommendations reflect both the ex-

pertise of the panelists and the findings

from several types of studies, including

studies that use causal designs to examine

the effectiveness of data use interventions,

case studies of schools and districts that

have made data-use a priority, and obser-

vations from other experts in the field. The

research base for this guide was identi-

fied through a comprehensive search for

studies evaluating academically oriented

data-based decision-making interventions

and practices. An initial search for litera-

ture related to data use to support instruc-

tional decision making in the past 20 years

yielded more than 490 citations. Of these,

64 used experimental, quasi-experimental,

1. Knapp et al. (2006).

and single subject designs to examine

whether data use leads to increases in

student achievement. Among the studies

ultimately relevant to the panel’s recom-

mendations, only six meet the causal va-

lidity standards of the What Works Clear-

inghouse (WWC) and were related to the

panel’s recommendations.2

To indicate the strength of evidence sup-

porting each recommendation, the panel

relied on the WWC standards for determin-

ing levels of evidence, described below and

in Table 1. It is important for the reader to

remember that the level of evidence rating

is not a judgment by the panel on how ef-

fective each of these recommended prac-

tices will be when implemented, nor is it

a judgment of what prior research has to

say about the effectiveness of these prac-

tices. The level of evidence ratings reflect

the panel’s judgment of the validity of

the existing literature to support a causal

claim that when these practices have been

implemented in the past, positive effects

on student academic outcomes were ob-

served. They do not reflect judgments of

the relative strength of these positive ef-

fects or the relative importance of the in-

dividual recommendations.

A strong rating refers to consistent and

generalizable evidence that an inter-

vention strategy or program improves

outcomes.3

A moderate rating refers either to evidence

from studies that allow strong causal con-

clusions but cannot be generalized with

assurance to the population on which a

recommendation is focused (perhaps be-

cause the findings have not been widely

plied WWC Version 1.0 standards. See Version 1.0

3. Following WWC guidelines, improved out-

comes are indicated by either a positive, statisti-

cally significant effect or a positive, substantively

important effect size (i.e., greater than 0.25).
