Data Use in Education: Alluring Attributes and Productive Processes

Sun, April 15, 2:45 to 4:15pm, New York Hilton Midtown, Floor: Concourse Level, Concourse C Room

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

In the last two decades, countries have implemented a set of governing approaches that emphasize the combined power of performance measurement and hands-on management. Data use represents the centerpiece of evidence-based governing regimes, considered to be an ideal way to coordinate activities in a school system. This symposium takes as its point of departure a special issue on data use in education. The papers bring together research from several countries and research from contexts with various traditions for public schooling. Four selected contributions and a designated discussant form a novel opportunity for a panel discussion across contexts to facilitate the exchange and further development of knowledge in the field.
