Move from Measurement to Action to Support Educators
Panorama’s Playbook comes with nearly 900 research-based strategies, including attendance interventions and ideas for improving areas tied to chronic absenteeism like engagement and climate.
Panorama automatically recommends age-appropriate activities and interventions based on students’ survey responses.
Research Methodology
The Chronic Absenteeism Survey Topics include nine scales demonstrated to correlate with chronic absenteeism from the research-backed Panorama Student Survey, which is used by thousands of schools and millions of students every year. Dr. Hunter Gehlbach and Dr. Sam Moulton developed the survey topics based on modern principles of survey development and design.
The Chronic Absenteeism Check-ins questions ask students about the attendance support they may need. Panorama created these questions based on best practices in survey design and scholarly literature to help educators understand and address absenteeism throughout the school year.
