Jennifer’s work with LCI focuses on assessment and data analysis. The programs she facilitates are designed to help participants create meaning out of numbers, implementing an inquiry cycle that includes the data from standardized state tests as well district- and classroom-level data. Knowing that data analysis can be an intimidating ordeal for schools and teachers, Jennifer's primary goals are to make the experience of engaging in data analysis meaningful, relevant, powerful, and whenever possible, enjoyable and to help directly connect the analysis of data to classrooms and students. Jennifer also assists districts in designing comprehensive assessment systems, paying special attention to ensuring reliability and validity. Published in the fields of data, special, gifted and middle-level education and a Fellow in Communities for Learning, Jennifer is currently working on her Ph. D. in Special Education.
