Task Overview
You will interpret, analyse and compare a simulated data set with normative educational data. You will be given a choice of three fictional case studies representing a primary school, a high school data set, or preschool. It is recommended you choose the case study most closely aligned with your specific teaching context, that is, if you are a primary school major then choose Case Study 1 (regional NSW primary school class data year 3) or if you are a secondary school major choose Case Study 2 (Sydney high school in the Western suburbs class data year 9) and if you are an early childhood major choose Case Study 3 (Preschool in Cabramatta, Sydney). The case studies will consist of information (data set) about a specific class (or cohort of students) at the respective fictional schools across a two-term time span in 2022 (or one term RE Case Study 3 in 2021).
The case study data will be presented in EXCEL spreadsheets and will consist of information about the class (e.g., student demographic information, health issues, attendance, homework submission rates, gender, Indigenous status, language background, ethnicity) as well as performance measures (e.g., NAPLAN scores, AEDC findings, assessment results, grades, percentages of results per subject, etc.).
