Would love to do analyses on Scottish PIAAC data #datadeserts
Wouldn't it be good if we re-joined PIAAC too that way we'd know the skill levels of all of the population @Learners_Forum @John__Field @ellen_boeren @EPGibbon @JimMchargj @LearningLinkSCO @CRADALLGlasgow @CldmScotland @_MWhitfield @willie_rennie @RealStephenKerr @HumzaYousaf
"Cities can’t do battle with the eviction crisis without good eviction data." But one-third of counties maintain no eviction data, and the federal government doesn't track cases. #datadeserts https://t.co/c8LIVztHUS
"To this day, no government entity is tracking police shootings in Utah," even though the state promised to do so. So reporters are doing it instead, and their findings are revealing: 40% of those shot at by cops had no firearm. https://t.co/mD7LvXObYR #datadeserts
Editorial: We don't have reliable data about how often police kill civilians. In fact, "much about our criminal justice system remains shrouded in secrecy." #datadeserts https://t.co/1EOI16rHP8
"The media, lawmakers, taxpayers and families are left in the dark about how the BOP runs its 122 prison facilities." #datadeserts https://t.co/KSivJ0828w
How can there be no authoritative count of how many healthcare professionals have lost their lives to COVID-19? https://t.co/VPOUxN8jfG Either the data exists and government is sitting on it, or public-health officials aren't asking an obvious question. #datadeserts
Efforts to create a federal database of people who die in custody are a 20-year trainwreck of noncompliance, ineffective enforcement, and obfuscation. #datadeserts https://t.co/kmLR4SZ1Iu
N.C. law requires schools to log concussions in prep sports -- but schools are all over the map in how, or whether, they actually keep count (and some just ignored reporters' public-records requests). #datadeserts https://t.co/GLDFWUIyvY
Both the FBI and CDC have been tasked with tracking how often police kill people, but both data sets are woefully incomplete, leaving news organizations to piece together the numbers. #datadeserts https://t.co/ovJj3ueIg8
"While the state discipline data list the race of the officers involved, the race of the people subject to the excessive force is not included, making it hard to draw conclusions about race-based differences in police encounters." https://t.co/5P0qN8yg31 #datadeserts
Blueprint for meaningful policing reform includes fortified data collection: There's no reliable data about basic questions like how often people in custody are harmed, how often high-speed cases result in crashes, and much more. https://t.co/yic5dxLVNG #datadeserts
A damning GAO report: "The Department of Education’s quality control processes for data it collects from public school districts on incidents of restraint and seclusion are largely ineffective or do not exist" #datadeserts https://t.co/cNpu0oXZhk
Nobody in South Carolina is responsible for keeping track of what happens with DUI cases. Reporters for @islandpacket did the homework that the court system failed to do. #datadeserts https://t.co/x680lezecs
Column: #DataDeserts are hampering reform of the nation's prisons and jails, because those in charge don't bother to reliably count and report commonsense statistics and trends. "It's a grave problem." https://t.co/A0nAevYVT2
Compelling reporting by @propublica about the systemic failure to track and report deaths by child abuse. https://t.co/aejllMo9AU This is why Brechner launched its #datadeserts initiative: You can't fix what you won't count.
The federal government, theoretically, requires schools to track and report their use of restraints and seclusion tactics on special-ed kids, but reporters from @ProPublicaIL found the data unreliable or absent. #datadeserts https://t.co/HjJHhYqjKp
Based on Justice Department statistics, police are exponentially under-reporting the number of hate crimes motivated by the victim's gender. #datadeserts https://t.co/nMhG7xA4rd
#datadeserts There's no way of verifying whether state planes are being used for personal travel by unauthorized people, because Florida doesn't log passengers' identities, @TB_Times reports. https://t.co/IYuSJJBk2G
Federal report: Data-gathering on hate crimes is "deeply flawed" and vastly undercounts actual instances, because law enforcement agencies' reporting is purely voluntary. #datadeserts https://t.co/XIWOgm8Rl1
#datadeserts Even after a @chicagotribune investigation spotlighted the absence of data, "police still don’t keep records on when license holders fire their weapons, how often they do it, or if they wound or kill someone." https://t.co/z8tcEuwvfe
