This session provided a multitude of resources available, data sources to guide state-level decision-making, reports to inform current or future goals and outcomes, and organizations to support engagement in the broader ecosystem.
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.
This IDIO Workshop on Data Linking and Integration highlighted tools and strategies to improve DLI for Part C to B transition. Participants collaborated to identify challenges and solutions with their program’s processes.
These resources help states prepare and submit the SPP/APR, including the SPP/APR Basics online training series, checklists and tips (updated October 2024), and new calculations guidance that specifies the data to include in the calculations for each SPP/APR indicator.
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 highlighted 2023 State of the States Survey data and findings from more than 50 IDEA Part C and B 619 programs. Data systems and their links to other programs are complex; learn more about how early childhood IDEA programs manage their data, link to other programs, and plan for the future.
DaSy, ECTA, and the Waters Center for Systems Thinking teamed with four states to improve their Part C/619 programs by increasing the knowledge and skills needed to improve data culture and become systems thinkers.
In this workshop from IDIO 2024, DaSy/ECTA staff guided participants through a multi-layered approach to analyzing data at a deeper level than normal.
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.
