Dr. Victoria Bernhardt
Current Rank: 1
Statistical Rank: 9352
Direct Contact: eff.csuchico.edu/
Victoria Bernhardt, Ph.D., is the Executive Director of a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to build the capacity of learning organizations at all levels to gather, analyze, and use data to continuously improve learning for all students.
Dr. Victoria Bernhardt has written numerous books including:
• From Questions to Actions: Using Questionnaire Data for Continuous School Improvement (2009) describes how to create, administer, analyze, and use questionnaires as a tool to improve teaching strategies, programs, and learning organizations.
• Data, Data Everywhere: Bringing All the Data Together for Continuous School Improvement (2009) is an easy-to-read primer that is conversational and accessible. This book will help your faculty and staff become comfortable with using data to drive a continuous school improvement process.
• Translating Data into Information to Improve Teaching and Learning (2007) helps educators think through the selection of meaningful data elements and effective data tools and strengthens their understanding of how to increase the quality of data and data reports at each educational level.
• A four-book collection of using data to improve student learning—Using Data to Improve Student Learning in Elementary Schools (2003); Using Data to Improve Student Learning in Middle Schools (2004); Using Data to Improve Student Learning in High Schools (2005); and Using Data to Improve Student Learning in School Districts (2006). Each book shows real analyses focused on one education organizational level and provides templates on an accompanying CD-Rom for leaders to use for gathering, graphing, and analyzing data in their own learning organizations.
• Data Analysis for Continuous School Improvement (First Edition, 1998; Second Edition, 2004) helps learning organizations use data to determine where they are, where they want to be, and how to get there—sensibly, painlessly, and effectively.
Dr. Victoria Bernhardt is passionate about her mission of helping all educators continuously improve student learning in classrooms, schools, districts, states, provinces, and countries by gathering, analyzing, and using actual data—as opposed to using hunches and "gut-level" feelings. She has made numerous presentations at professional meetings and conducts workshops on the school portfolio, data analysis, data warehousing, and school improvement at local, state, regional, national, and international levels.

After extensive teaching experience in all grade levels, including special education, and her doctoral studies at Northwestern University, Dr. Bernice McCarthy developed an instructional model to connect all types of learners. She was convinced that the diversity of learners called for an all encompassing learning cycle. Bernice McCarthy drew on the research of Jung, Paiget, Vygotsky, Dewey, Lewin and Kolb to create an instructional system that would progress through the complete learning cycle using strategies that would appeal to all learners. This innovative approach, the 4MAT System, was the basis for the founding of her company, About Learning, Inc. in 1979.

Instructional design, team processing, leadership skills, communication, conflict resolution, decision making, problem solving, and creativity are all encompassed in the 4MAT Model.
Bernice McCarthy is a prolific author and presenter and has conducted workshops and keynote sessions on effective learning at organizations worldwide including school districts across the U.S. and Canada as well as in higher education and government.
