Vital datasets around curriculum, spending, and achievement are siloed among K-12 stakeholders. Surfacing and integrating that data allows educators to make better decisions for their students. In this presentation, learn from Moshiur Tarafdar, Chief Technology Officer at Noodle Markets about hidden metrics, as well as legislative and practical obstacles that keep them apart.

Noodle Markets has helped districts surface data around purchasing activity, compliance, and collaboration, with an eye toward safeguarding student privacy. Along the way, they have discovered disparate datasets around achievement, attendance, demographics, market trends, and more.

The presentation especially explore sapplicable datasets around purchasing, but educators across levels, from superintendents to librarians to IT staff to classroom teachers, will benefit from expanding their professional learning around all forms of school data sources.
