Literature Review Introduction Demie (2013) mentions that school leaders are appreciating ways in which data can be used to improve schools. Educators today have access to an exceptional amount of data owing to the continuous developments in technology and the growing demand to evaluate student learning. Teachers are using data effectively to review the performance and expectations of pupils, to identify groups of pupils who are underachieving and to evaluate the effectiveness of their teaching
statistics when making data-driven decisions in education. This analysis explains the opportunities for using statistics in the classroom as well as in meetings both within the building and district wide. The questions that will be addressed regarding data-driven decisions include: What statistical data can you compare?; How does the analysis of the collected statistical data help educators make data-driven decisions?; and, Who can you share the information with? Keywords: data-driven decisions, statistics
Creating a Data Driven Decision Making School Tips that Work Tameka R.

Data-driven instruction in schools is a developing practice across school districts with minimal rigorous research conducted necessary to build generalization of studies to practice.

In defining Project Based Learning, this occurs where students are involved in identifying and solving a problem in and out of the classroom. Data Informed Decisions occurs where data is used to drive curriculum-based decisions in the classroom. School leaders and district administrators normally make these decisions for schools.

crops did not suffer so much before. Modern data analysts use computers to analyze the various behaviors and phenomena of human society using numbers to predict the consequences of most events. An analysis-driven company is in the increasingly fierce competition in order to maintain long-term profitability, then what is the analysis-driven? First, before we talking about the question, there should be a definition about data. Everyone's understanding of the data is not always the same. From a broad perspective
