Saydel Strategic Plan

Monitoring Metric Dimensions

The Monitoring Metrics for our Saydel Strategic Plan is laid out in three dimensions: Student Achievement, Implementation Data, and Perceptual Data. The intent is to capture the quantitative (assessment and statistical evidence) and qualitative (survey and perceptual) data utilizing a body of evidence approach. Our hope is to provide the Saydel stakeholders a more wholistic picture of what teaching and leanring looks and feels like across our organization.
