What is a Data Coach?
Data Coaching is a campus initiative aimed at creating a culture of inquiry at Mt. SAC. Data coaches
will be part of a cohort of faculty members who will provide direct support to their
peers whereby educators work together to analyze student data, identify equity gaps,
pilot new instructional strategies, and measure the impact of these new pedagogies
on student outcomes. Imparting this information on a cross-section of the faculty
will lead to greater instances of collaborative inquiry at Mt. SAC.

How Data Coaches Contribute to Equity Work
Equity-Minded Curriculum Cohort
In this course, faculty will learn techniques for revising or developing a new Course Outline of Record (COR). By critically evaluating different elements of a COR through a DEISA+ (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Social Justice, Anti-Racism and other -ism) lens, we can work towards providing a more meaningful and equity-centered educational experience for our students.

The Triple R retreat offers self-reflection, data review, and curriculum revision to address opportunity gaps. Activities include workshops, guest speakers, and breakout sessions, that focus on diversity, equity, inclusion, social justice, anti-racism, and anti other-isms, encouraging a growth mindset for curriculum changes and development.
