Data Wise Project
For twenty years, we’ve been using the Data Wise Improvement Process to help educators create equitable learning environments where every student can thrive.
The Data Wise Improvement Process
An Eight-Step System for Using Data to Improve Teaching and Learning
The Data Wise Improvement Process (DWIP) is an eight-step model that guides teams of educators as they work collaboratively to improve teaching and learning through the collaborative use of data.
DWIP provides a clear, carefully tested blueprint that employs a wide range of evidence, from the “big data” of high-stakes tests to the “street data” collected through classroom observation and information about lived experience gathered from students and their families. And it’s supported by a suite of resources designed to help educators drive positive change.
Featured Programs
Data Wise works with educators worldwide to develop resources that support collaborative improvement of teaching and learning. We help schools, districts, and organizations cultivate the habits of mind, norms, and practices that support continuous improvement and lead to equitable student outcomes.
