ZOOM! Data Source is a comprehensive student achievement data management program designed to help member schools increase student achievement through data-driven decision making while at the same time providing the Association with access to student-level data for research and analysis of charter school performance. The program meets the unique data management needs of charter schools by providing access to an intuitive on-line data management system, DataDirector™, which allows schools to upload and analyze state-level summative data alongside school and classroom-level formative assessment and student demographic data. Access to this tool is coupled with custom in-person and web-based technical support, training and professional development to build strong data cultures in participating charter schools. The project will serve 125 charter schools in Los Angeles County in 2009-2010 and 150 charters schools in 2010-2011.
