In our data-saturated world, the real challenge isn't finding data—it's knowing which data to trust.

Our CEO Dan Gaylin joined @scottmcgrew.bsky.social on NBC's Press:Here to discuss his new #FactForwardBook and share strategies for becoming more data savvy.

Great things happen when #math #teachers can access all student data in one place! By integrating attendance, curriculum, assessments, and behavior data, @norc.org helped a large school district pilot a secure #data system that helps to improve educational outcomes: youtu.be/AxR_wLz8owA

Same over here. It seems like an intentional attack on BlueSky. I wish we didn’t have to block one by one! I am using filters on my feed, but it doesn’t stop followers.
