Module 3: A Framework for Collaborative Inquiry - Chapter 3.2 Building the Foundation

Through clips of Data Teams in action and commentary from practitioners, it illustrates the critical tasks that Data Teams undertake to ensure the success of collaborative inquiry from the outset and to prevent problems that can plague teams: blaming students and their backgrounds for achievement gaps; unproductive group dynamics; or an unsafe environment for sharing student work.
