  3. What are the SEC? • Practical, reliable set of data collection tools used by teachers • Online web-based surveys in Mathematics, English Language Arts, and Science • Group data that is reported in user-friendly charts • Assists in Facilitating group discussions for observed differences across classrooms, schools and districts

  5. Alignment as a Systemic Tool Curriculum Classroom Content Alignment Assessments Standards

  6. SEC History Lesson • The Surveys of Enacted Curriculum (SEC) Collaborative Project was initiated in 1998 in Mathematics and Science. • Over the past six years the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) and their partners have worked with states to implement the SEC tools for data collection, analysis, and reporting.

  7. History (continued) • In 2003, CCSSO working with state specialists, Learning Point Associates™ (LPA) and the Wisconsin Center for Educational Research (WCER), developed an English Language Arts and Reading survey. • Surveys are available K-12 for Mathematics, Science, and English Language Arts and Reading.

  9. Research has found that faculty in successful schools always question existing instructional practice and do not blame lack of student achievement on external causes. — Carl Glickman, 2002

  10. What if… … there was a powerful tool that compared teacher’s reflected instructional practices to other teacher’s across a school, district or the nation? … a powerful tool compared teacher’s reflections of content instruction to state standards, benchmarks and assessments? … you could start powerful school discussions about teacher’s curricular and professional development needs based on data, observed differences between student achievement scores and schools curriculum?

  11. Education Improvement Questions • Collecting Data: How can in-depth subject content data be collected -not simple topic checklists- to analyze teaching content in relation to curriculum goals, standards, or assessments? • Analyzing Data: How can methods of teaching/ practices be compared across classrooms, schools, districts, and states? • Using Data: And, how can the data then be used to improve instruction toward standards?
