IWBAT-Data Conferences

confirm scholar misconceptions and generate action plans that will drive improved results.

IWBAT Do Now Process Practice Closing

IWBAT-Today

analyze assessment data prior to data conference with appraiser, and know what to expect during and after data conference with appraiser

Do Now

Directions: Please analyze the exit ticket and be prepared to respond to the following questions:

• Is this exit ticket aligned to the standard? Does it prepare scholars for the

demands of the standard? Explain!

• What questions could we ask to get this teacher to recognize what we

notice about alignment/rigor?

• How can we ensure we are not producing exit tickets that fall below the

demands of our standards?

Effective Data Meetings

• Teachers and appraisers analyzed data prior

to the meeting

• Re-teaching approaches were captured,

written into plans and a timeline for re- teaching was established

Essential Tools/Resources

The following resources/tools should be present during your data meetings:

• Teacher Toolkit (binder) with planning resources
• Scope and Sequence
• Planning Calendar (Teacher created) Standards with descriptors and mapped items 
• Completed Analysis & Action Plan
• 3-5 Sample Test Booklets: Items, Passages, Answer Key, Scholar Work
• Ed Plan Data Reports: Standard Analysis, Scholar Analysis, Wrong Item

Analysis, etc.

Global Analysis of Results

Phase I: Global Impressions: What are general conclusions we can draw from the data:

• How well did the class do as a whole?
• What are the strengths and weaknesses in the standards: Where do we

need to work the most?

• How did the class do on old vs. new standards? Are they forgetting or

improving on old material?

• How were the results in the different question types (multiple choice vs.
• pen-ended, reading vs. writing)?
• How did scholars who require additional support perform? Where are

some bright spots?

Deep Analysis of Results

Phase II: Let’s Dig In! What is the data really telling us about

• ur scholars:
• “Squint:” bombed questions—did students all choose same wrong answer? Why
• r why not? What can we learn from distractors?
• Compare similar standards: Do results in one influence the other?
• Break down each standard: Did they do similarly on every question or were some

questions harder? What do they know how to do?

• Sort data by students’ scores: Are there questions that separate proficient / non-

proficient students?

• Look horizontally by student: Are there any anomalies occurring with certain

students?

Action Planning

Phase III: So, what do we do?What action must we take to improve results:

• Identify misconceptions for standards we are re-teaching
• Generate aims/objectives to address misconceptions
• Develop assessment (exit ticket; quiz etc.) for those objectives
• Determine teaching approach/activities to prepare scholars for mastery of objectives
• Schedule re-teaching plan (whole group & small group) into 6-week scope and sequence (in some

cases you’ll be spiraling with new standards)

• Set timeline and expectations for execution?

*Critical Question: When will scholars demonstrate mastery on the standards that are being retaught?

Practice

• Objective

Teachers will practice preparing for a data conference.

• Context

You are preparing for a data conference. You’ll spend 10 minutes analyzing the data independently.

• Analysis Expectations

Phase 1: Surface Analysis Phase 2: Revealing Misunderstandings through Deep Analysis (*Choose 1-2 Standards to focus on with your partner.) Phase 3: Action Planning (*Choose 1 standard to focus on here.)

Practice Phase 1: Surface Analysis

Standards/Items (Great >80% Good>70% Well ≥ 50%)

• When you look at your scholars’

results, what can we celebrate?

• What did you do to drive these

results? Standards/Items(Struggle < 50)

• Where does it seem like scholars

struggled on this snapshot?

• What standards need to be taught

whole group? What standards need to be taught in small group?

Practice Phase 2: Deep Analysis

Error Analysis: Specific Items

• Did Scholars all choose the same wrong

answer? Why?

• What misunderstandings are revealed:

what do you think scholars were doing wrong here?

• What are all the steps scholars needed to

do to answer this question correctly?

• Where does it seem like mastery broke

down for this question?

Error Analysis: Within Standard

• On questions that measured the same

standard, were scholars better on some questions than others?

• If so, what are the differences in difficulty

between those questions? Why did students do better on one question than on another?

• Do the results on one standard influence

the other?

• What do you notice when you analyze

assessment results across genres?

Practice Phase 3: Action Planning

* Choose one standard

• What misconceptions were revealed through your analysis?
• Are your aims/objectives aligned to the misconceptions?
• How will you assess?
• When will you be reteaching?
• Based on our analysis and discussion, what approach will you use to

reteach the standard?

• What updates will you make to your planning calendar/action plan

based on our discussion?

Key Points from this Session

• Looking at student results together is not about focusing on what

went wrong; it’s about immediately moving to what we can do better.

• Analysis of results does not occur at the data conference. Teachers

and appraisers must analyze results prior to the data conference. This ensures that your time can be focused on generating re-teaching strategies and action planning.

• When done effectively, the Rigor Readiness Protocol allows teachers

to proactively respond to the demands of the standards & assessment

• items. It is through this protocol that we can surface many of the

questions/concerns we’re now experiencing and address them at the beginning of the teaching cycle.

Teacher Reflection:

Directions: In your table groups, please discuss the following questions:

• How has this session prepared you to participate in effective

data conferences with your appraiser?

• What next steps will you take to ensure that your data

conferences produce action plans that drive results?
