coACTION QA Guide: Module 6

Page 6 /24 What you’ll need Before you begin, we recommennd preparing the following: o Your school’s previous sensor results from Module 2. o A valid Access code for the sensor platform (contact your programme coordinator if needed) o Your project group, ready to reflect, evaluate and facilitate the process; and Important Questions Do we need a new access code? Yes — most schools receive a new annual access code for each application of the Sensor. This helps the system keep results well-organised and makes comparisons easier. If you are unsure about your school’s code, please contact your coACTION coordinator. Can we compare this year’s results with the last? Absolutely. The Sensor system includes a deviation analysis feature, which allows you to view and compare results from different points in time. This lets you track your school’s democratic development, identify areas of growth, and see where consistent efforts are still needed. Reflective Prompt (Optional) If you would like to begin this module with a conversation or journal activity, here is a reflective prompt you can use with your project group, class, or staff team: o What do you hope to discover by repeating the sensor this year? o What signs of change have you already noticed in your school community? You can write down your thoughts, share them in pairs or small groups, or use them as discussion starters in your next project team meeting.
