  1. August 2013 Odyssey Workshop Presented by Joel Robe Longitudinal Data andStudent Record Exchange

  2. Today’s Objectives • Understanding of ODE’s initiative for maintaining data over time including the current expansion to meet P-20 objectives • Overview of a new application for the exchange of student records between schools and between schools and colleges

  3. SLDS: What does it stand for? Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems What is that? A repository of information containing point in time data to provide the condition of a student, school, district, and/or other grouping at given points in time. Now what does that mean in English? • Changes to student data are stored for district data received by ODE.

  4. Operational Data Store • The technical name for the repository where SLDS data are stored is called an Operational Data Store or ODS • An ODS stores data and changes made to the data on a pre-defined frequency • The SLDS frequency for ODE is a daily update • Not all changes - multiple changes during the day aren’t captured - just the end of the day

  5. Operational Data Store • Allows a user to answer the question: • What was the ‘truth’ as of a given point in time? Example: • If a school district submits a record for a student showing a race/ethnicity on one day and a different race/ethnicity the next day you will see the change!

  6. Sources for SLDS Data • Student Operational Data Store • Data from ODE’s student collections • Student Centered Operational Data Store • Student Assessment data • KIDS/REDS (K-16 Integrated Data System/Regional Education Data Store) • District’s Student and Financial Information System Data

  7. SLDS Data Sources • KIDS/REDS (K-16 Integrated Data System/Regional Education Data Store) • Student Collections • OAKS and ELPA Assessments • Project ALDER

  8. KIDS/REDS (K-16 Integrated Data System/Regional Education Data Store) Goal: Provide seamless and efficient student record sharing statewide to get information in the hands of teachers and educators as quickly as possible to ensure all students are provided optimal education opportunities • Data flows into the REDS repository from the district SIS/FIS • Project kicked off in 2005 and ended in 2010 • Daily data updates from RDWPs are ongoing • Used for SRE
