Title: Education Databases: Are They For Government Accountability or Informing Consumers?

The talk will look at some recent efforts in the US to try to balance the multiple demands on education data to satisfy issues of compliance, regulation, accountability and consumer choice. It will identify the types of audiences that need these data and the degree to which we need to think through strategies of data presentation for multiple audiences.
