Monitoring and Evaluation Supporting School Improvement and EffectivenessEduEval Consultancy
There is an increasing emphasis on school success. Resources are not limited and the most precious of these is time. The time that teachers and students spend together needs to be effective so that student are capitalizing on opportunities to learn and ultimately achieving pre-determined educational standards. There are many different components to schools and factors that influence success. Educational leaders can readily become overwhelmed with where to start to make a difference. Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) allows for purposeful evidence-informed decisions to become part of the school culture.
Monitoring And Evaluation Framework For The K 12 Education And Training Syste...Wesley Schwalje
This presentation advances a performance management framework for the K-12 education system that aligns ministry and sector strategies with the development goals established by the Qatar National Development Strategy 2011-2016 and the Qatar National Vision 2030. Policy-based KPIs were conceived to measure system performance relative to the achievement of the overarching policy aims of quality, equity, and portability. Output KPIs were conceived to measure the effectiveness of education and training system interventions in terms of achieving academic, social, and economic outcomes which are precursors to the future development of Qatar.

Achieve Webinar: Student Assessment Inventory Tool for School Districts
On a webinar, Achieve provided an overview of the newly released Student Assessment Inventory Tool for School Districts, designed to guide district administrators and instructional leaders through a process to ensure that students are only taking the minimum number of tests necessary to serve essential instructional, diagnostic and accountability purposes. Beyond teacher-developed classroom assessments that are core to the learning process, it is clear that many students are required to take a host of additional assessments that have too little value. This tool is designed to provide an opportunity for district leaders to take stock and take action. Achieve was joined by state leaders who have been sharing the inventory tool with districts as a framework to guide reflection and decision-making, including Abe Krisst, Technology Readiness Coordinator, Connecticut State Department of Education and Nancy DePalma, Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum, Instruction & Assessment, West Hartford Public Schools. The Student Assessment Inventory for School Districts can be access on the Achieve website at http://www.achieve.org/meetings-webinars
