Overview

Beginning with the first Arkansas Department of Education State Improvement Grant, which was awarded to the ADE in 2003, to the present, SPDG staff have developed a number of data collection and analysis tools to facilitate different aspects of strategic planning, effective classroom and instructional processes, functional assessment and data-based problem solving, progress monitoring, and evaluation. 

This section of the website provides brief overviews of these different tools and resources with links and, in some cases, video training so that professionals working at all levels of the educational system and process can learn and use them independently.
