Moving the Needle: Effective Uses of Data in Evolving and Growing Hawaiʻi’s Early College Program

Since the inception of the Early College program in Hawaiʻi, data has been critical to program design and improvement efforts and partnership discussions between the Hawaiʻi State Department of Education, University of Hawaiʻi System, and Hawaiʻi P-20 Partnerships for Education. This session will highlight key examples of Early College “data in action,” including initial program design, use of program outcomes to secure legislative funding, strategic planning efforts, and promoting equitable program access and student success.  Presenters will share sample data reports that are annually provided to high school and UH campus partners, as well as examples of how program data has spurred reflection, dialogue, and improvements.
