ED 729 Improving Education Through Inquiry

(3 credits)
In this course, students learn to utilize data to identify school improvement needs and make informed decisions in effecting change that will lead to the academic success of all students, including those with learning disabilities and those who come from linguistically and culturally diverse backgrounds. Students build the knowledge and skills to think and plan strategically, to create an organizational vision around personalized student success. An exploration of successfully demonstrated change models exposes students to the collection and analysis of multiple data sources to improve schools. Students learn to systemically collect and analyze multiple sources of data to identify improvement needs, determine an effective response, monitor and correct progress, and demonstrate success to stakeholders. Candidates also examine the components of an effective school improvement plan.
