Data Fit
DataFit is a customized data dashboard that aggregates and visualizes the Student Outcome and teacher practice data for each organization. DataFit is managed by the Data Collaborative Team's Data Lead (Tyler Barnett). DataFit, while stable when left alone, does require some routine maintenance.
The Don'ts that will affect Data Fit:
The Don'ts that will affect Data Fit:
- Any edits to the Observation forms in Google: Any changes made to the questions — rewording, changing punctuation, spaces, etc. — in the Google Forms that are linked to DataFit will create a configuration error. To avoid this, please inform someone familiar with Google Data Studio of the change, and they will be able to make the update and resolve the configuration error that will be displayed.
- Don't manipulate, change or edit formulas in Homebase. If unfamiliar or uncomfortable with Google Sheets and/or Data Studio, please do not make edits in Homebase tabs that host Student Outcome and Teacher Observations data. Please make sure you consult or solicit someone who is comfortable to make desired changes. A change in Homebase will affect DataFit.
