Deep in Data, Short on Time: Let Analytics Do Your Legwork


Listen Later

School districts collect a wealth of data — data that often lives in various disconnected systems or spreadsheets that make it difficult to understand and work with. While many K-12 leaders recognize that data can be useful, the in-depth analysis that makes it possible to use data to inform strategic decisions about student programs or financial planning can often feel out of reach.

Dr. CyLynn Braswell has spent 20 years in public education in roles ranging from teacher to executive director. She now works for Frontline Education, helping schools use the data at their disposal to evaluate student programs, identify at-risk students, increase equity, and ensure that resources are allocated for maximum impact.

We sat down with her to explore:

  • The obstacles that often stand in the way of using data to inform decisions
  • Key issues that school districts should be thinking about they welcome students back in the fall — and how using data can help set them up for success
  • Current trends at the intersection of education and analytics
  • The single biggest question that district leaders can ask and answer with data to drive greater student outcomes and achievement

Join us for this exciting, practical look at how data can be used to make a meaningful difference in the lives of students!
