Passing Period - E5 - Creating a Culture of Data

Midwest PBIS Network's Podcast

Too often in schools our teams of educational professionals use subjectivity as a means to make decisions about which supports (if any) we will offer to youth who are struggling with problem behaviors. Using data to make decisions about which youth to support, which supports to offer, and if our supports are being done with fidelity takes all of the guesswork, subjectivity, and emotionality out of the decision making process. Using data is the most effective way to make decisions, and the PBIS framework is already set up to help do this effectively.
