Resumen del Editor

Radically reimagine our ways of being, learning, and doing

Education can be transformed if we eradicate our fixation on big data like standardized test scores as the supreme measure of equity and learning. Instead of the focus being on “fixing” and “filling” academic gaps, we must envision and rebuild the system from the student up—with classrooms, schools and systems built around students’ brilliance, cultural wealth, and intellectual potential. Street data reminds us that what is measurable is not the same as what is valuable and that data can be humanizing, liberatory and healing.

By breaking down street data fundamentals: what it is, how to gather it, and how it can complement other forms of data to guide a school or district’s equity journey, Safir and Dugan offer an actionable framework for school transformation. Written for educators and policymakers, this book

· Offers fresh ideas and innovative tools to apply immediately

· Provides an asset-based model to help educators look for what’s right in our students and communities instead of seeking what’s wrong

· Explores a different application of data, from its capacity to help us diagnose root causes of inequity, to its potential to transform learning, and its power to reshape adult culture

Enjoyed this read!

This is a well-written book rooted in theory and practice. I thought it was practical and insightful.

Yes!!!!!

As a white school psychologist, I LOVED this. We rely so heavily on data that often de-centers students’ lived experiences and street data is so powerful. We started a two-year PLC with other school psychologists in my district with this book and I can already see the small changes taking place and I am so excited to see how we can embed these practices deeper into our work and lives.

Brilliant and thoughtful approach

Listening to this book has left me also wanting to purchase a hard copy. The authors’ depth of knowledge and service is evident. I’ll be leaning into this equity transformation cycle to help guide my work in educational- and personal- spaces.

Where is the audiobook companion website?

Enjoying so far, but cannot find any of the resources referred to. Where is the link located?

No more dismissing qualitative data!!

In fact, let's seek more of it in authentic ways we've historically ignored because research biases trust numbers over people's lives experiences. Let's make those work together better and increase what we consider data!! Another incredibly validating and important read for radical educators and researchers.
