Fall 2024 School Accountability Workshops
Coming Fall 2024: School Accountability Workshops!
New to school accountability or need a refresher? Would you like to learn more about navigating, interpreting, and using school accountability reports and data? The Michigan Department of Education Office of Educational Assessment and Accountability (OEAA) Accountability Team is holding FREE, in-person and virtual interactive learning sessions, repeating each morning from September 30 to October 2, 2024. These 1/2 day workshops will include informational and interactive data sessions on Michigan's federally approved school accountability system—the Michigan School Index. Informational sessions will provide a detailed overview of the School Index and go over foundational accountability concepts. Interactive sessions will explore report navigation and the applied interpretation/use of school accountability data to answer school improvement questions. Attendees of in-person workshop dates are encouraged to bring their own laptops with Microsoft Excel software, along their MILogin credentials to access MI School Data (www.mischooldata.org) while on site in order to follow along with the interactive sessions. Download the workshop agenda here.
Workshop Learning Objectives:
- Understand foundational accountability concepts, components and calculations of the Michigan School Index System
