Video Discussion Board 2

Discussion Topic: Roblyer & Hughes (2019) discuss the importance and use of data collection and analysis in Chapter 4. Address examples of how you collect data from your students and how you use that data. Have you taught your students how to collect and organize data? What methods worked well for you? Transcript: In our kindergarten classroom, we do not give any written tests, so data collection comes from a lot of one-on-one conferencing, verbal assessment, and observation. Our reading program comes with a virtual data collecting site where we constantly track our students’ data and progress in real time.

This is especially relevant in the integration of technology.         ...
