EHD 532 - Data Analysis for Education Data Specialists II

This course expands on the techniques learned in EDS 531 to aggregate and analyze assessment, attendance, grade, and demographic data. This course will use specific software resources (including FileMaker, Excel/Calc, “R”, and/or Minitab) to summarize and analyze data. This course will refine specific procedures learned in EDS 531 for data organization and aggregation as well as teaching students how to select and apply the correct analyses for specific data types. A comprehensive project will require students to combine and analyze multiple years worth of education data and design a school level data analysis. This analysis will summarize achievement, behavior, and attendance trends over time and will include specific recommendations for how to incorporate these data into curriculum reviews and planning.
