Today's educators work in data rich environments. They interact with multiple systems in any given day, and often have questions about how this data can be used or moved but lack the time to delve into the details. DatabasED distills the complexities of data processes and analysis into terms and concepts that educators are familiar with and can connect with their day to day practice (and will occasionally provide a venue for data nerds to nerd out over related topics).

Looking under the hood at teacher policy advocacy with May Hara and Annalee Good

In Episode 2 of Season 2, we talk with Dr. May Hara of Framingham State University and Dr. Annalee Good of the Wisconsin Center for Education Research about their new book, Teachers as Policy Advocates: Strategies for Collaboration and Change. Following the book’s chapter themes, we discuss policy areas of school safety and discipline, assessment, public health and COVID-19, and digital learning, specifically highlighting areas where the languages of DatabasED potentially intersect. In the words of Dr. Good, the episode helps us “look under the hood” of how education policies can be accessed and addressed by teachers and how teacher policy advocacy often intersects with school and district leadership and even district technology offices.
