Data analysis, technology, curriculum, and instruction. (NELP 4.1, 4.4) In part 1, as the principal at your (elementary, middle, or high) school, explore, analyze, and describe the school setting and the types of assessment data available for your analysis, and write a narrative describing the specific assessment data analysis in which you will engage. To demonstrate your ability to use technology to monitor, analyze, and evaluate curriculum, instruction and use of technology (NELP 4.4), you will access performance management system data and use an appropriate technology tool (e.g. Excel, SPSS), to analyze summative assessment data related to your schools’ curriculum, including students’ learning scores for standardized or diagnostic tests, and any other appropriate data available. Look for patterns and areas of concern linked to specific standards. Identify any indicators for which the data indicate students’ learning gaps. Based on the data you analyze, write SMART goals to address the concern. Include an analysis and description of the school setting and the types of data available for your analysis, the link/s to the tools used to analyze data, and a table with the data. Also, display the data in a graphical representation. Gather the standards-the State instructional expectations-related to the data (NELP 7.4). Write a narrative that names and explains the standards that are areas of concern. After completing these steps, read the School Improvement Plan or other improvement plans. Analyze the problems addressed by the plan. Do they address the issue you identified as an area of concern? Explain (NELP 4.1).

As we explore US History through an Indigenous lens, we will be more focused on the grand story that history is trying to tell us than on detailed specific moments in time, meaning that learning about Indigenous Nations in a specific detailed fashion will often be saved for an advanced course. In an effort to allow you the opportunity to delve into learning about specific Tribal Nations, I will offer a number of extra credit opportunities in which you can research specific tribal nations.
