10 State Actions to Ensure Effective Data Use
The 10 State Actions to Ensure Effective Data Use, along with the 10 Essential Elements, provide a roadmap to state policymakers to create a culture in which quality data are not only collected but also used to increase student achievement. To leverage current investments and ensure data are used, states must act to ensure that data can be linked across education systems, are accessible to stakeholders, and those stakeholders have the capacity to use data to improve student achievement.
