Description:

Effective PLCs do more than review data; they use evidence to determine what students have learned, identify barriers to learning, and make intentional decisions about what happens next. Grounded in John Hattie’s Know Thy Impact mind frame, this interactive session will help educators move beyond simply analyzing scores to evaluating the impact of instruction on student learning. Participants will explore a practical See It → Name It → Act on It → Check the Impact process for identifying patterns in student evidence, determining specific learning needs, selecting responsive instructional actions, and monitoring whether those actions worked. Throughout the session, participants will examine how effective PLCs use evidence and feedback to continually evaluate instructional impact and determine where to go next. Participants will leave with practical questions, protocols, and strategies they can immediately use to strengthen data conversations in their own PLCs and turn evidence into meaningful instructional action.

At the heart of the session are two simple but powerful questions that should drive every PLC data conversation:

  • What does the data say?
  • What will we do about it?

These questions move PLCs beyond simply reporting results and toward the collective responsibility of responding to student needs, adjusting instruction, and ultimately knowing their impact.
