using data to inform personalized learning next steps

fulton county schools (fcs) in atlanta, ga, is the fourth largest school system in the state with approximately 96,700 students. the district began its personalized learning journey in 2014 with a cohort rollout model. as of spring 2017, all 95 schools had launched personalized learning, and the district was faced with a challenge: how do they support each school as it deepens personalized learning in a way that best meets its needs?

fulton leaders approached this question just as they hope teachers would in their classrooms: by using data. during a two-part workshop, school personalized learning leadership teams explored a dashboard of learning walk observations as well as teacher and student survey results to identify successes and barriers over the course of their personalized learning implementation. school teams then developed a targeted plan based on their findings. the result: documentation of a tailored approach for each school to reflect and iterate on their personalized learning implementation thus far. these plans will be implemented in 2017 and beyond as fcs strives to meet the needs of every student.
