Extended Pre-ID Data Corrections 6

  7. 2012 Reminders How to know if corrections may be needed. • District Data Profile • The “District Data Profile” report displays a breakdown of student counts within selected fields within a selected multiple-choice test administration. • Missing Demographic Report • Alert e-mailed to District STAR Coordinators • Generated by Pre-ID load and extract • Resides on the STAR Management System Extended Pre-ID Data Corrections

  8. Benefits • Reduce hand-marking of answer documents • Provide more current and accurate demographic data used to create STAR reports • Reduce the number of STAR Student Reports returned to the district as undeliverable • Provide potential time and cost savings: • Ensure timely reports with correct data • Eliminate the need to provide data at the time of scoring (cost is $1.32 per student) • Realize cost savings over having to use Data Corrections after STAR reports have been produced Extended Pre-ID Data Corrections 8

  9. Preparation Determine whether any data need to be updated or added. • Did the district submit the “Demographic Fields to Be Hand-Marked on 2012 STAR Answer Documents or Entered During Extended Pre-ID Data Corrections” form? • Have any demographic data for the student changed since Pre-ID was used to print documents/labels? For example: • Statewide Student ID • English proficiency • Student’s address Extended Pre-ID Data Corrections 9

  10. Preparation (continued) • Develop a plan and a timeline. • Gather the data required to be updated for each student. • Which data require updating? • Where can you find the updated data? • When will you have the data available? • Update the STAR demographic data. • Decide on the method to use: • On-screen—one student at a time • File—download data, correct, and reload corrected data • Combination • Updates can be performed over many days. • Extended Pre-ID Data Corrections must be completed prior to the district’s selected last day of testing for the administration.
