Dr. Peggy Hines, School Counselor Program Director, Indiana State University, Terre Haute, IN
School counselors, as the eyes and ears of the school, have a moral imperative to advocate for effective instructional programs that will improve achievement and close gaps between students groups. This session will demonstrate how school counselors can pair data with technology to create powerful advocacy tools that can spur change within schools. Using real data provided from elementary, middle and high school participants will learn: What data to collect, how to analyze and interpret data, and how to use data and technology to provide a direction for school improvement efforts. Implications for university training programs will be discussed.
