Or is
it?
7. Before you reflect on EOY results, you must
confirm that you have treated your data with care
9. Treating your data with care requires that
they be…
Honest Accurate
Complete
Error-Free
10. HONEST Data
Are an honest reporting of what your students actually accomplished
This means…
• Inputting the correct data in
your tracker file
• Scoring running records
precisely, even when students
are “close” to the next level
• Keeping all standards in your
tracker even if you didn’t get to
teach all of them
11. ACCURATE Data
Reflect your initial Pathway and any changes that may have occurred
This means…
• Finalizing your roster to include
students who joined your class
mid-year
• Finalizing your roster to
remove students who were
with you less than 50% of
instructional time
• Scoring all assessments with
fidelity
• That your data reflect
outcomes from aligned, high-
quality, rigorous assessments
12. COMPLETE Data
Contain all the data necessary to complete your Pathway
This means…
• Including your full name and
other relevant info within your
tracker
• Collecting at least two rounds
of data for every student on
your roster
• For developmental standards
Pathways, ensuring each
standard has been assessed
• Ensuring standards are
assessed with the adequate
rigor and at-bats necessary to
make a valid inference about
student learning
13. ERROR-FREE Data
Have been checked and double checked to make sure no errors exist
This means…
• Ensuring no typos exist in any
cells
• Ensuring no errors exist in any
formulas
• Ensuring no formatting errors
exist
• That your tracker has been
saved successfully
14. Data that have not
been verified may
send the wrong
message about what
has been achieved
15. Like an umpire who makes a bad call, it sends
the wrong signal about what happened

our students our students’ parents
our colleagues our advisers ourselves
17. Treating your data with
care is a critical part of
your role as a teacher
and a graduate student
