Data Literacy with Datawise and Change Management – 3 Session Series
Data is everywhere, but numbers only tell a story if we know how to read them, and culture only shifts if we know how to manage the human side of change. This collaborative workshop series guides educators, coaches, and school leaders through building data literacy using Harvard’s Data Wise Improvement Process, while also considering challenges with change management. Together, we will move past the overwhelm of "too much data" and build a culture of collaborative inquiry. Participants will learn how to look at data constructively, identify true learner needs, adjust instructional practices, and navigate the psychological and structural shifts required for sustainable, school-wide change. This workshop series addresses multiple domains of Connecticut’s Common Core of Leading (CCL), Professional Standards for Educational Leaders (PSSEL), and the Common Core of Teaching (CCT). Session Topics: Session 1-Teaming, Early Inquiry, and Resistance to Change Management; Session #2-Deeper Inquiry about Students and Adults, From a Culture of Compliance to a Culture of Inquiry; and Session #3-Taking Action, Overcoming Implementation Dips. Who Should Attend? This series is designed for District Leadership Teams, School Leadership Teams, Instructional Coaches, Department Chairs, and Grade-Level Professional Learning Communities (PLCs). Because this framework deeply addresses systems change and culture shifting, we highly recommend attending as a team of up to five (5) to maximize the impact in your setting.
