Description: The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the collection and use of data for district and school improvement, accountability, and support. In addition, educators have faced new challenges because of COVID-19's impact on local communities, and students have experienced trauma and greater social-emotional needs that can affect their abilities to engage in their education. In this webinar, REL Southwest collaborated with REL Appalachia, REL Mid-Atlantic, and REL Northeast & Islands to explore how districts and schools are changing their approach to data to identify needs and challenges in schools and communities and to provide the appropriate support and guidance.
Audience: This webinar is designed for a broad national audience of state and district education leaders and other educators who are interested in the topic.
