New Carousel Exercise Added to Data Detective Training Resources (January 10, 2007)

This webinar introduced a new exercise: the teacher-level data carousel. This exercise is modeled on the data carousel exercise presented at the live Data Detective training events held in the summer of 200; however, the new exercise uses data from the classroom level instead of program level. The webinar presented the new exercise and suggested guidelines for training use.
