40 Book Challenge

• spent a lot of time looking up progress of individual kids because they wanted to know where they stood

• we couldn't just let them look at our spreadsheet because of privacy issues

Student Micro-Credential Database

• We really struggled maintaining a database from year-to-year

• Same privacy concerns prevented us from sharing with students, so they had to come to us for updates

• All data entry was on us

• Our new GDS report system spread like wildfire--kids were motivated to see their individual report

• Including the digital badges motivated some kids to earn more. They are obviously adorable.

Leaderboards and the like

• This is the less-explored application that we are turning our sights to next

• James Allen's KYVL report is a great example of possibilities in this area

• We'll play with making one of these during the session
