Radically reimagine our ways of being, learning, and doing
Education can be transformed if we eradicate our fixation on big
data like standardized test scores as the supreme measure of equity
and learning. Instead of the focus being on "fixing" and "filling"
academic gaps, we must envision and rebuild the system from the
student up-with classrooms, schools and systems built around
students' brilliance, cultural wealth, and intellectual potential.
Street data reminds us that what is measurable is not the same as
what is valuable and that data can be humanizing, liberatory and
healing. By breaking down street data fundamentals: what it is, how
to gather it, and how it can complement other forms of data to
guide a school or district's equity journey, Safir and Dugan offer
an actionable framework for school transformation. Written for
educators and policymakers, this book * Offers fresh ideas and
innovative tools to apply immediately * Provides an asset-based
model to help educators look for what's right in our students and
communities instead of seeking what's wrong * Explores a different
application of data, from its capacity to help us diagnose root
causes of inequity, to its potential to transform learning, and its
power to reshape adult culture Now is the time to take an
antiracist stance, interrogate our assumptions about knowledge,
measurement, and what really matters when it comes to educating
young people.
