3 OPI renewal units are offered for this training
Have you ever been asked to collect data on your learners, but the thought of it fills you with dread? You don’t know where to start, or even if you did, you have no idea what to do with the data once you’ve got it.
Data. Who knew that one word could make so many people frown! When you ask people to gather data, do you find that they know it’s something they should do, but they never quite get around to it? OR are you someone who is asked to take data but you’ve never been taught how? This mini workshop will help you to become a data ninja. Through discussion, video examples, and hands-on activities you will learn the foundations of data collection. You will then use that knowledge to identify when and how to take data and finally what you should do with it after. You will also learn how to communicate with members of your team and help them to take clear, concise and most importantly, useful data. You will leave this workshop ready to start data collection in your setting, you’ll have the skills to analyze it and then apply that information to your day to day teaching of the skills you are targeting.
