The lack of comfort that many educators have in working with data poses a great challenge as school districts make the transition from a data rich to an information rich environment. Data literacy is the solution. It is clear that educators need the ability to formulate and answer questions using data as part of evidence-based thinking, selecting and using appropriate data tools, interpreting information from data, evaluating evidence-based differences, using data to solve real problems and communicating solutions.
