Humanizing Data in Education: Provocations Magazine, Edition 2

Every day, children walk into schools carrying the full richness of who they are; and too often, data reduces them to a score, a rank, or a percentile. This second edition takes on that unspoken norm head-on, reimagining what data could look like if it honored each child's full humanity instead of flattening it. Rooted in Montessori's call to follow the child, the articles inside ask: What if data served human connection and development instead of compliance? If you're ready to stop using numbers to sort children and start using them to understand and serve them, this edition will change how you think. Provocations is a quarterly magazine from Developing Education that challenges educators to rethink the status quo: not with small fixes, but with bold, system-level change.

Authors in the second edition include Kelly Jonelis, Inge Rozendal-Vesters, Caroline Robbins, Christine Lowry, Dr Paul Epstein, Dr Sam Ballington, Sifaan Zavahir, and Andrew Faulstich
