Note from our SIS/Data Administrator PLN lead, Brian Wynder:

My goal as always is twofold:
1) To tease out best practices and lessons learned which can benefit everyone in the group
2) To identify general skill or knowledge gaps in the province and brainstorm ways that we as a group can arrange for them to be filled

Today's topic: How do we navigate the complicated relationship we have with data?

Data, in and of itself, is almost never the solution. In fact, sometimes it can itself be the problem.

The GPS, poorly configured, could take is in the complete wrong direction if we are not careful.

In this session we are going to explore as a group our own understanding of how the data we collect or generate can, for good or for ill, guide us. This will include discussions about topics such as:

How do we choose or define metrics?
How do we interpret or work with anecdotal data?
At what point do we start to think that the data we have obtained is painting an accurate picture of what we are looking at?
