Data literacy has become an essential skill set for teachers as education becomes more of an evidence-based profession. Teachers in all stages of professional growth need to learn how to use data effectively and responsibly to inform their teaching practices. This groundbreaking resource describes data literacy for teaching, emphasizing the important relationship between data knowledge and skills and disciplinary and pedagogical content knowledge. Case studies of emerging programs in schools of education are used to illustrate the key components needed to integrate data-driven decisionmaking into the teaching curricula. The book offers a clear path for change while also addressing the inherent complexities associated with change. Data Literacy for Educators provides concrete strategies for schools of education, professional developers, and school districts.
Book Features:
- Defines data literacy for teaching and outlines the knowledge and skills it comprises.
- Uses examples and case studies that tie theory to practice.
- Provides a roadmap for integrating data literacy into teacher preparation programs.
- Covers emerging trends, such as virtual and hybrid courses and massive open online courses.
