We believe that “student-centered instruction is the basis of an equitable educational practice.” Identifying where and how equity enters is the first step in eliminating barriers to access and opportunities that put students at a disadvantage. Explore how data supports the responsive planning cycle and how to meet students at their zones of proximal development to accelerate their learning. Discover how these responsive strategies can be an equitable move that aligns with stress- and trauma sensitive practices.
Learning Objectives:

– Examine an educator’s experience to understand how data can become an entry point for equity.

– Explain the current reality of student readiness.

– Determine how to plan for instruction using assessment data.
