Measurable Results

• Why are Accountability, Measurement and
  Evaluation Important?
• "Information is the key to holding schools
  accountable for improved performance every year
  among every student group," Data is our best
  management toolI often say that what gets
  measured, gets done. If we know the contours of
  the problem, and who is affected, we can put
  forward a solution. Teachers can adjust lesson
  plans. Administrators can evaluate curricula.
  Data can inform decision making.
