The Use/Misuse of Educational Data

Included below is a link to Superintendent Markavitch’s seven minute podcast focusing on the use/misuse of educational data. She hits the 16% college ready statistic hard and using ACT information she exposes the statistic as being accurate 50% of the time. Following up with the question as to whether decisions should be made based on data that is only right half of the time.

The information can be used and shared with your school community and is very well done.
