Baseball occupies a lot of my brain space during the summer. When the weather is hot, I watch #baseball and read about it quite a bit. There are lessons to be learned from baseball's #data revolution that we can apply to the #education field. danfrederking.com/education-mone…

@rpondiscio @DTWillingham Is the issue ultimately that schools just don’t know how to incorporate reading instruction into other disciplines? Are subjects so siloed that it’s become hard to cross the lines?

If you're cutting any subject--social studies, science, or the arts--to make more time for reading instruction, you're doing it wrong. As @DTWillingham has reminded us, "teaching content is teaching reading."

I am a proponent of using #eddata the right way. If data collection is not worth the return on investment, then dump it. No one should be burdened by disruptive data collection that isn't even that helpful. #k12 #edtech

@ASA_Impact @teachcardona This is a good articulation of the problem. The education field is data rich but information poor. We need systems that uses the data to its potential.

“There's a lot of good systems that are not talking to each other. So whether it's K12 to two years to four year (colleges), to industry partners, to labor, everybody's working hard…just not necessarily at the same table.” -@teachcardona #ASUGSVSummit
