This presentation highlighted two data frameworks that can support states in addressing equity: DaSy’s Data Systems Framework and Child Trends’ System Transformation for Equitable Preschools (STEP Forward with Data) Framework.
This presentation at the 2024 IDIO conference provided information and resources to help states to build a solid understanding of the SPP/APR indicators and the nuances of each calculation. Resources highlighed included the “SPP/APR Basics” online training modules, the Checklists and Tips, and the new Data Calculation documents.
The DaSy work highlighted in this session by current State Part C Data Managers is relevant to providing and supporting a strong Part C Data Manager community, which is especially important given the high turnover rate.
The presenters covered concepts relevant to family outcome surveys, including methods such as stratified sampling, the importance of sample size, representativeness, and response rates. Procedures for weighting responses and writing sampling plans were also discussed.
The presenters discussed the new requirements for the FFY 2023 Part C SPP/APR submission, including information about reporting C12 data, and the use of pre-finding correction.
Sharing information about the Part C data manager community opportunities, presenters and state data managers discussed how DaSy can support new and seasoned data managers. Most content in the presentation was shared in conversation.
This session delved into the critical content and data that must be shared with directors to ensure equitable and inclusive opportunities for preschool children with disabilities.
In this IDIO 2024 presentation, DaSy/ECTA staff cover the basics for child outcomes measurement and reporting, including an overview of how they were developed, what the outcomes are, how the indicators are calculated, what approaches to measurement states use, what the national results look like, how to consider child outcomes data quality, and where to access additional resources.
