Need a quick fix for disruptions? 🚫 If a student is being disrespectful or a completely 🤡 of themselves, and it is hindering our data collection process, it's okay to have them sit quietly in the corner or step outside. This helps maintain the quality of our data! 🌟 Has anyone faced this challenge? How did you handle it? Share your experiences!

Have the questions on the board and read each question to the children. Walk around during the test to make sure children are filling in only one bubble.

Unique Identifiers

Ask the teachers to put one through 50 (Or however many students they have) on an attendance sheet they keep. Then on your pre-and post just have one through 50 or however many students who have as a unique identifier so you can match up the post assessments without student names ever leaving the building.

Surveys

In the last three years we have found it very beneficial to discuss that we’re going to read the questions out loud but no one is to answer out loud. This ensures the survey is done timely, honestly, and accurately. I also let my teachers ad lib. Or ask after each session what can be done better- because they know their students better. For example on the question about additional screen time the teacher explained the question saying, “ additional screen time isn’t what you’re doing with your homework, when you’re using your chrome book at school, or watching educational stuff at school. It’s the recreation or video games you play or when you’re doing it at home just for fun.”
