Why Relationship Building Matters for School Data Use (with Tiffany Lee)

I got to hang out with Tiffany Lee, who is a School Psychologist in northern Virginia and a YouTube content creator. Thousands of viewers tune in to learn from Tiffany’s experiences as a school psychologist. She’s made videos about a day in the life of a school psychologist, resume tips from school psych grad students, what it’s like to be a school psych intern, administering school psych tips like a pro, and more. * Sour cream donuts [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sour_cream_doughnut] * Royal icing [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_icing] * National Association of School Psychologists  on learning disabilities [https://www.nasponline.org/resources-and-publications/resources-and-podcasts/special-education/sld-eligibility-policy-and-practice-reccomendations] * YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TiffanyLee [https://www.youtube.com/c/TiffanyLee] * IG: https://www.instagram.com/schoolpsychtiffany [https://www.instagram.com/schoolpsychtiffany] * TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@schoolpsychtiffany [https://www.tiktok.com/@schoolpsychtiffany] * If you're reading The K-12 Educator's Data Guidebook [https://www.amazon.com/K-12-Educators-Data-Guidebook-Reimagining-ebook/dp/B09R3BG8F6/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=Lsklx&content-id=amzn1.sym.8cf3b8ef-6a74-45dc-9f0d-6409eb523603&pf_rd_p=8cf3b8ef-6a74-45dc-9f0d-6409eb523603&pf_rd_r=G4T2KHVVKNZPPCT0PYBN&pd_rd_wg=Xyxti&pd_rd_r=8b72f7ff-3bcf-4429-b2a2-9b6463c86985&ref_=pd_gw_ci_mcx_mi], this episode goes great with chapter 7 “Student Level Data” * Sign up for Ryan’s email list and get 20 percent off The K-12 Educator's Data Guidebook [http://eepurl.com/hsnP6z] * Visit my website and get Data Resources and More for K–12 Educators [http://ryanestrellado.com/] * Music by Pglet on Blue Dot Sessions [https://bluedotsessions.bandcamp.com/album/pglet]

How Teachers Can Use Multiple Sources of Student Data for Decision-Making (with Graciela Flores)

In this episode, I got to hang out with Graciela Flores who is a teacher, content creator, and one of the first teachers I talked to while researching for The K–12 Educator’s Guidebook. Do you ever wish someone with lots of experience in the classroom would open up their bag of tricks and talk about how they work? If that’s you, you’ll want to settle in and check this out. It’s like a mini-workshop on dual immersion instruction. It’s also a mini-workshop on practical data use, whether you teach in a dual immersion classroom or not.  In This Episode: * The beauty of learning more than one language * An explainer of dual immersion programs * Examples of what data Graciela looks at and how she uses it * How Gracie uses reporting + observations + conversations to understand her students’ thinking and plan her teaching Links * Graciela Flores on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/maestraflores/] * “But when construed not as a means of ending conversations but starting them, using data and research can have exponential value.” Link to Source [https://wtgrantfoundation.org/library/uploads/2019/12/David-E.-Kirkland-2019-WTG-Digest.pdf] * Dual Immersion  [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_language] * Graciela teaching acentuación with a song [https://www.instagram.com/p/B3QKISXBwIb/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D] * Graciela on Teachers Pay Teachers [https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Maestra-Flores] * Contact Graciela for consultation [maestraflores1@gmail.com] * Association of Two-Way & Dual Language Education (ATDLE) [https://atdle.org/] * Farmer and the Seahorse [https://farmerandtheseahorse.com/] * If you're reading The K-12 Educator's Data Guidebook [https://www.amazon.com/K-12-Educators-Data-Guidebook-Reimagining/dp/0367689480/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=the+k12+educator%27s+data+guide+book&qid=1636381811&qsid=141-2879735-7870965&sprefix=the+k%E2%80%9312%2Caps%2C304&sr=8-1&sres=0367689480%2C111952475X%2C1564842983%2C1440870357%2C1083044370%2C1119577039%2C1610691369%2C1610695437%2C1483371794%2C1591584469%2CB07T3DHTDJ%2C1591584981%2CB07VHZP5PR%2C1563088975%2C1610694910%2C0932577164&srpt=ABIS_BOOK], this episode goes great with chapter 10 “Practical is Personal” * Sign up for Ryan’s email list and get 20 percent off The K-12 Educator's Data Guidebook [https://ryanestrellado.com/] * Visit my website and get Data Resources and More for K–12 Educators [http://ryanestrellado.com/] * Music by Pglet on Blue Dot Sessions [https://app.sessions.blue/browse/track/92310]

Teaching With Style (with my teacher friend Megan)

In this episode, I got to hang out with Megan who was one of the first teachers I talked to while researching for The K–12 Educator’s Guidebook. I really like Megan’s story because of her drive to refine her craft. That’s really inspiring to me. She even has a surprise plot twist in her career journey that we talk about. When I interviewed Megan for the book I wanted to know what resources teachers liked. Megan showed me a book, which would influence how I wrote the K–12 Educator’s Data Guidebook. Or rather, Megan’s relationship with the book influenced me. That’s because I saw how a book that was practical could fit into the tool kit of a highly motivated teacher like Megan. Listen on to find out what that book was plus a whole lot of practical data tips directly from a teacher in the field. * If you're reading The K-12 Educator's Data Guidebook [https://www.amazon.com/K-12-Educators-Data-Guidebook-Reimagining/dp/0367689480/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=the+k12+educator%27s+data+guide+book&qid=1636381811&qsid=141-2879735-7870965&sprefix=the+k%E2%80%9312%2Caps%2C304&sr=8-1&sres=0367689480%2C111952475X%2C1564842983%2C1440870357%2C1083044370%2C1119577039%2C1610691369%2C1610695437%2C1483371794%2C1591584469%2CB07T3DHTDJ%2C1591584981%2CB07VHZP5PR%2C1563088975%2C1610694910%2C0932577164&srpt=ABIS_BOOK], this episode goes great with chapter 4 “Time is the Problem” and chapter 10 “Practical is Personal” * Sign up for Ryan’s email list and get 20 percent off The K-12 Educator's Data Guidebook [https://ryanestrellado.com/] * Visit my website and get Data Resources and More for K–12 Educators [http://ryanestrellado.com/] * Music by Pglet on Blue Dot Sessions [https://app.sessions.blue/browse/track/92310]
