Shear, University of Colorado - Boulder Erin M. Fahle, Stanford University The Stanford Education Data Archive (SEDA) is a publicly available dataset based on roughly 300 million standardized test scores from students in U.S. public schools. SEDA contains average test scores by grade (grades 3-8), year (2009-2015), subject (math and reading/language arts), and subgroup (race/ethnicity) for all school districts in the U.S. Scores from different states, grades, and years are linked to a common national scale, allowing comparisons of student performance over states and time. SEDA was constructed by Sean Reardon and Andrew Ho. This workshop will introduce participants to the SEDA 2.0 data through a presentation about its contents and construction. It will then walk participants through two hands-on data activities that focus on how to use the data for visualizations and analyses. All attendees should bring a laptop with Stata or R installed in order to participate fully in the training. More information about SEDA is available at http://seda.stanford.edu |
