This workshop covers the development and use of “practical” measures, which provide powerful insights embedded in daily practice. Participants will learn how to create a system of measures to support improvement, and how to utilize the measures for systemic change.
Practical Measurement
Accelerating the field’s capacity to learn in and through practice is one key to transforming promising ideas in education into tools, interventions, and professional development initiatives that achieve effectiveness reliably at scale. Practical Measurement explains why this type of learning requires a different kind of measurement—measurement that is distinct from the measures commonly used by schools for accountability or by researchers for theory development.
