How can schools and teams make data feel human and actually useful? In this episode, Becca talks with data culture expert Jessica Lane about approaches that move beyond dashboards and charts to create meaningful impact.

Jessica shares practical ways to start small, focus on “tiny data,” and connect every action to real student outcomes. Through stories and actionable strategies, listeners will learn how to build trust, support teacher growth, and use data as a tool for continuous improvement rather than a source of stress.

Whether your school is beginning its data journey or looking to strengthen existing practices, this conversation offers frameworks for fostering a positive data culture, encouraging reflection, and turning everyday classroom observations into actionable insights.

This episode is perfect for coaches, instructional leaders, and educators who want data to work for people, not the other way around.
