ABSTRACT

Learning takes place neither in isolation, nor only at school. The major job of every school is student learning. Staff must think through the factors that impact student learning to determine other data requirements. Different levels of analysis reveal answers to questions at varying depths of understanding: snapshots of measures; measures, over time; two or more variables within measures; two or more variables within one type of measure, over time; intersection of two types of measures; intersection of two measures, over time; intersection of three measures; intersection of three measures, over time; intersection of all four measures; and intersection of all four measures, over time.
