In The Past

The Oregon Data Project was an initiative launched in 2010 by the Oregon Department of Education with the aim of improving student achievement in the state by using data-driven decision-making in education. The project aimed to provide educators with tools and resources to collect, analyze, and use student data to inform instruction and improve student outcomes.

The Oregon Data Project focused on several key areas, including:

  1. Data Collection: The project provided training and support to educators to help them collect and organize student data effectively.
  2. Data Analysis: The project provided tools and resources to help educators analyze student data and identify areas where students may need additional support.
  3. Data Use: The project encouraged educators to use student data to inform instruction and improve student outcomes. This involved helping educators develop data-driven instructional practices and strategies.
  4. Data Privacy and Security: The project emphasized the importance of protecting student data privacy and security.

The Oregon Data Project was a collaborative effort involving the Oregon Department of Education, local school districts, and educators throughout the state. The project provided valuable resources and support to help educators use data effectively to improve student achievement. However, it is important to note that the project was officially ended in 2017, and its resources and materials are no longer actively maintained.
