K-12 schools and districts spend thousands each year on teacher development, knowing that an investment in their teachers’ growth is an investment in their students’ potential. Some U.S. districts have spent around $18,000 per teacher per year on professional learning initiatives. But a recent study found that despite the investment, some districts saw little change in student learning.
While student data has been a part of learning and teaching for years, connected data has changed the impact that a teacher’s professional learning can have on student performance. With the right set of modern edtech tools, schools and districts can make better, informed decisions to improve both teaching and learning.
