#NCSLMAChat @jrsrhodes I need to do better with my blog too. I keep making a goal from weekly to monthly and fall short.

Data FOR your program helps you plan. Data FROM your program helps you evaluate. https://t.co/abA7pzMSRW #NCSLMAchat

Also use @LiveBinders to organize all my evidences by standards. Great at evaluation time. https://t.co/ocRbcaq3Oa #NCSLMAchat

jenniferlagarde Jan 28 @ 8:17 PM EST

A2. Circulation data only matters if you connect to student outcomes. #NCSLMAChat

A2: Right now, the #nonfiction focused survey I'm running with my students (thx to @CMS_VLMS's push) is giving me data & ideas! #NCSLMAChat

FESMedia Jan 28 @ 8:19 PM EST

A2 Data from Destiny , survey of students and staff, #NCSLMAChat

MolleeBranden - Moderator Jan 28 @ 8:19 PM EST

A2 - heavily rely on Destiny reports; student feedback/informal interviews; occasional google forms as surveys. Need more ideas! #NCSLMAchat

tavia_clark - Moderator Jan 28 @ 8:19 PM EST

A2. I talk to Ss & Ts. Never underestimate the power of human connection. Conversations can be just as important as #s. #NCSLMAChat

MolleeBranden - Moderator Jan 28 @ 8:21 PM EST

A3 - Also attend grade-level planning so I can learn, supplement/enrich units, discuss past successes #NCSLMAchat

jenniferlagarde Jan 28 @ 8:21 PM EST

A1. Start w/Ss data. Identify the needs of a small group of kids. Plan/deliver an intervention. Then collect data to evaluate. #NCSLMAChat

MolleeBranden - Moderator Jan 28 @ 8:21 PM EST

A4 -often find obvs focus on only 1 of 5 stnds so that report illustrates other components of what I do #NCSLMAchat https://t.co/TgSeHEVWxt

AMitchell828 Jan 28 @ 8:22 PM EST

@smmcfate Start small is my tip. Pick one area, like collection analysis and focus on that to see how well it is going. #NCSLMAChat

Librarian_Crys Jan 28 @ 8:22 PM EST

Trying to make connection b/tw reader perceptions to their low achievement level. Excited about being involved intimately w/Ss. #NCSLMAchat
