Title

Practice-Driven Data: Lessons from Chicago's Approach to Research, Data, and Practice in Education

Abstract/Description

The Network for College Success, the UChicago Consortium on School Research, and the To&Through Project use a practice-driven data approach when working with educators in the Chicago Public Schools. This paper is designed to share the lessons we have learned about how, when, why, and under what conditions we have seen the use of data support real, sustainable, and remarkable improvement in the outcomes of Chicago’s youth. Our work as partners to the school district has implications for advocates, policymakers, district and school leaders, and school support organizations, both locally and nationally, who wish to take the approach to data that we have seen work so well in Chicago.
