MiRead Research Support

On March 19th the MiRead team along with one of our pilot schools will be meeting with a research team from the University of Michigan to review the progress made on designing the predictive validity calculations that will drive MiRead assessment displays in the coming years. The team at U of M has been working with pilot district data this year and will be sharing progress and methodology with the district and the developers at MiRead. Additionally, the research team has an exciting addition as a Machine Learning doctoral student from Harvard joined the team this winter and will be helping design the engine that manages assessment data in MiRead.  Please send questions about MiRead to Taylor Hoag at thoag@gomasa.org

EWIMS MCAN Conference Presentation

On Monday March 4th, a team of Bersheril Bailey (Great Lakes Comprehensive Center), Shawn Cannarile (MDE), Don Dailey (MiDataHub) and Gregg Dionne (MDE) presented to attendees at the Michigan College Access Network (MCAN) Conference in Lansing regarding the Early Warning Intervention Monitoring System (EWIMS) process.  EWIMS is a 7-step research-based process that helps schools identify students at risk of dropping out and then allows schools to put in place and monitor interventions to address the risk areas. The process refers to the MiDataHub dashboards and EWS as a freely available tool for districts to use with the process, although districts can use any tool that provides them with the data needed. Click on the link below to view the presentation and go to www.mi.gov/mde-ewims for more information on the EWIMS process.  View presentation here
