Structured Conversations Logo
**The Structured Conversations initiative** was launched to gather perspectives from classroom practitioners about how they would like to use learning data in support of academic achievement. We use the term Structured Conversations to describe a structured, scripted process for generating, grouping, and prioritizing ideas in response to a question prompt. Sessions are organized and facilitated locally with access to a common script and set of supporting resources.
