MTSS teams have the important - and often daunting - responsibility of collecting, connecting, and analyzing vast amounts of data that inform decision-making to ensure all students are supported efficiently and effectively. The problem is that data often ‘lives’ in different systems and formats, which can make it difficult for educators to develop a comprehensive view of student needs, growth, and overall success. So how do we ensure that the appropriate data are identified, aggregated, and exchanged so we can DO something with it? Enter Data Interoperability!
Data interoperability ensures that MTSS data can be exchanged between different systems quickly and efficiently. This helps educators to more easily identify areas of need, implement interventions, and track progress. In this webinar, we’ll explore what data interoperability is and why it’s critical to your MTSS practice. We’ll also use Branching Minds and ClassLink as examples of how data interoperability looks and how it can help streamline your MTSS practice, enhance collaboration, improve outcomes, and ensure equity.
Who should attend?
This webinar is for district and technology leaders, and anyone who wants to learn more about how technology and data interoperability enable effective MTSS.
Join this webinar to learn:
➡️ What data interoperability is and why it’s essential for effective MTSS practice
➡️ The benefits of data interoperability for your district, school, teachers, and students
➡️ Examples of data interoperability, including data that can be exchanged/ingested in both Branching Minds and ClassLink
Note: A certificate of attendance was emailed to all registered live attendees who attended 45 minutes or more of this webinar. Branching Minds does not issue certificates to those who watch the webinar recording on demand (i.e., those who do not attend live).

Dr. Eva Dundas Dr. Eva Dundas is the Chief Product Officer at Branching Minds, where she pursues her mission to bridge the gap between the science of learning and education practice. Dr. Dundas has a Ph.D. in developmental and cognitive psychology from Carnegie Mellon University where she conducted research on how the brain develops when children acquire visual expertise for words and faces. Her research also explores how the relationship between neural systems (specifically language and visual processing) unfolds over development, and how those dynamics differ with neurodevelopmental disorders like dyslexia and autism. She has published articles on that subject in the Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, Neuropsychologia, Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, and Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders. Dr. Dundas also has an M.Ed. in mind, brain, and education from Harvard University, and a B.S. in neuroscience from the University of Pittsburgh. |
