Student Learning Goals
3.1 Educators ask questions of the data, they recognise patterns in student results and they use this information to improve the quality of learning.

Also critical is the role of collaboration in interpreting information, and in planning future steps. (Leadership in Catholic Schools, 2005: 18)
