I’ve previously shared articles critical of the practice:

How ‘data walls’ in classrooms can humiliate young kids is by Valerie Strauss.

How ‘platooning’ and data walls are changing elementary school is from The Washington Post.

I’m adding this info to The Best Resources Showing Why We Need To Be “Data-Informed” & Not “Data-Driven.”
