基于数据的学校决策:本质、过程及其实践问题

Data-based School Decision Making:Essence,Process and Practical Problems

基于数据的学校决策,在本质上是学校持续的、系统化、协同性地利用数据做出判断的过程。学校利用数据进行决策有两种不同的过程,一种以清晰呈现的目标或过程为导向,强调利用数据清晰地定义问题和最终进行学校改进的评估;另一种以发现问题为导向,强调将数据作为促进各方讨论的支点,进而建立数据驱动的学校文化建设。对于学校而言,成功地使用数据依赖于对以下几个方面问题的解决:数据的代表性问题、数据解读的"多样化"问题、第三方机构及数据顾问的角色定位问题、"不利"数据的公开问题、数据驱动学校持续改进的问题。

Data-based school decision making,is essentially a constant,systematic,collaborative process. It takes two ways:one is oriented by clear aims and process,focuses on clear school questions and assessment of school improvement;the other is oriented by looking for problem,focuses on data as scaffolding discussions to establish data-driven school culture.For schools,the success is relied on following questions:typical data, diversity in data explanation,the third party and consultant's identity,"bad"data and constant improvement.
