Structured Conversations initiative

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.
