Teacher Student Data Link Review and Updates

April 14, 2011

Page 3: Suggested Ground Rules

Data Requirements Subject Areas – This is the 2 digit code representing the

subject area for the course in which the student is participating. From the SCED table for secondary level courses, and the NEW – Prior-to-Secondary SCED CODES list for elementary and non assigned middle school courses REQUIRED FIELD

For students in grade or setting 00-05 or 30: Must be a valid Prior To Secondary SCED Code

For students in grade or setting 06-08 or 14: Must be a valid Prior to Secondary SCED Code OR Secondary SCED Code

For students in grades 09-12: Must be a valid Secondary SCED code or “00” for approved CTE Courses, with no Course Identifier Code

If Subject Area Code = 01-22, then Final Grade is Required If Subject Area Code = 01-22, then Credit Granted is Required

Page 4: Suggested Ground Rules

Special EducationORIGINALY WE CODED THEM WITH THE FOLLOWING: Code “99” for those students reported in Special Education Elementary or Special Education

Ungraded – Grade 14

NOW If you have difficulty identifying Teacher/Student Data Link course codes for transition students,

grade 14 students, those with significant disabilities who do not participate in traditional courses and other students whose cognitive abilities may be within the average range, but they cannot meet the basic expectations of courses the district offers in at least one content area. For instance, this might be a student who has a very significant learning disability that makes is impossible to meet basic expectations in one typically required class, even with accommodations—or a students with a severe emotional impairment who cannot meet basic expectations because of his/her disability. In order to comply with USED requirements, Michigan must link each student through age 21 with at least one teacher through a course code.

Using the Prior to Secondary Book

For students participating in a self-contained classroom all day, we recommend the following:

73039 Prior-to-Secondary Education (p. 75)Code 73039, representing prior-to-secondary education courses that are not grade-differentiated, should be used when a state or locality does not differentiate courses by either grade level or subject area or when standards apply to a range of consecutive grades (e.g., “by third grade, students should know and be able to do…”) and a multiplicity of subject-area content.

SEE HANDOUT FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

Page 5: Suggested Ground Rules

Data Requirements Course Identifier Code – This 3 digit course identifier code is for

the course in which the student is participating. From the SCED table for secondary level courses, from the NEW – Prior-to-Secondary SCED CODES list for elementary level courses and some middle school courses– OPTIONAL FIELD FOR 2010-2011 and REQUIRED FIELD FOR 2011-2012

Must be valid NCES Course ID when the Subject Area Code is reported = 01-22

Must be the NEW Prior-to-Secondary SCED Course ID’s when the Subject Area = 51-73

REMINDER For Subject Area Code “00” for CTE State Approved Programs you

would leave this blank.

Page 6: Suggested Ground Rules

Data RequirementsLocal Course ID – The course identification code assigned by

the educating entity. The purpose is to allow the district to send student record updates for specific courses. (i.e. interim grade followed by final grade) – REQUIRED FIELD

Local Course Section Number – The course section number assigned by the educating entity – REQUIRED FIELD

Local Course Title – The course name assigned by the educating entity – REQUIRED FIELD

Page 7: Suggested Ground Rules

Data RequirementsCourse Type – The code best representing the level and rigor of the

instruction provided throughout the reported course – REQUIRED FIELD

May be reported by students in all grades:01 – Regular (Default)06 – Non Applicable00 – Other

May only be reported by students in grades 7-12:03 – Pre-Advanced (course in prep to AP program)

May only be reported by students in grades 9-12:02 – Honors04 – Advanced Placement05 – International Baccalaureate07 – Dual Enrollment and Middle College08 – Concurrent Enrollment – NEW

.

Page 8: Suggested Ground Rules

Data RequirementsAcademic Year – The academic year in which the student last

attended the course (e.g. 2004-2005) – OPTIONAL FIELD BUT HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Even though the field is optional – Why use the Academic Year?If the grade is changed for a student in a subsequent year because of a local appeal process, the updated grade is not required to be reported BUT if the district chooses to report the updated grade, they may do so by ensuring that the correct Academic Year is selected.

Page 9: Suggested Ground Rules

Data RequirementsCredits Granted – The amount of credits granted to the

student in Carnegie units for the course or a section of a course (eg., 1.0, .50, etc) – CONDITIONAL FIELD

Required when Subject Area Code = 01-22 Secondary SCED with the following exceptions:

Grade or Setting = 14 (Special Education)Completion Status = “AU” AuditedCompletion Status = “OE” Ongoing Enrolled

Page 10: Suggested Ground Rules

Data RequirementsCourse Grade – The grade the student received for completing

the course – REQUIRED FOR SECONDARY AND OPTIONAL FOR ELEMENTARY

NEW These should be board approved grades, what would be on a

high school transcript Required when subject area code = 01-22 Not required for elementary subject area codes = 51-71 Not required for students reported in grade 14 (special

education) Not required for completion status of “AU” Audit If the student did not receive a grade for the course, course

and student information is not required

Page 11: Suggested Ground Rules

Data RequirementsCompletion Status – The students standing for this course when

the student is NO longer a participant – REQUIRED FIELD

Valid Codes:AU – AuditTO – Tested OutOE – Ongoing EnrolledCP – Completed/PassedCF – Completed/FailedWE – Withdrawn/ExitedWF – Withdrawn/FailedWP – Withdrawn/PassedCS – Completed When students are reported as Grade 14 special

education ONLYI - Incomplete

Must not be “OE” when District Exit Status <> 19

Page 12: Suggested Ground Rules

Data RequirementsTeacher ID – The Personnel Identification Code (PIC), as assigned in the

Registry of Educational Personnel (REP), for each teacher responsible for some or all of the instruction for this course – REQUIRED FIELD

Must be a Valid PIC. The PIC will be validated to the REP to ensure that the PIC exists. Additional checks will be done post-collection to analyze the relationship of the PIC to the reporting entity.

At least one PIC per student with the exceptions of Early Childhood, Adult Education, Home Schooled, Non Public School Students.

REP will be modified to provide a PIC lookup feature outside of normal collection windows. This will be available to REP authorized users ONLY.

REMINDER Do not report if the Subject Area Code is “00” State Approved CTE Program Do not report if Course Type = 07 Dual Enrollment/Early Middle College The teacher responsible for the STUDENT outcomes should be the one

reported. You can report multiple teachers for one Course. It is a locals decision as to which teacher(s) will be held accountable for the student’s performance

Page 13: Suggested Ground Rules

Data RequirementsVirtual Delivery - A Yes/No field indicating whether the

student is receiving instruction via a virtual delivery method. This method could be virtual learning, E2020, distance learning, computer-based or internet courses provided at the school – OPTIONAL FIELD

Mentor Teacher - A Yes/No field that indicates the instructor of this virtual course is serving in a Mentor capacity. Mentor teachers must be certified – OPTIONAL FIELD

Students only enrolled in Early Childhood Education Programs Adult Education Participants Students with active IEP’s who are 22 years of age or older as

of September 1 of the current year Homeschooled and non-public school students participating in

non-essential curriculum or advanced placement courses

Page 16: Suggested Ground Rules

REP and PIC Connection TO TSDL

The PIC numbers are used in TSDL to identify teachers

REP contains PIC numbers used to identify teachers

REP has the information on teacher certifications

REP has the ability to look up PIC numbers using the new PIC Service Application 24/7

MDE/CEPI will be matching teacher PIC numbers between TSDL and REP to guarantee that teachers are teaching within their certifications

Assessment growth data will be linked to the individual teachers through the use of the PIC number and use in the evaluation process

Page 17: Suggested Ground Rules

The New REP PIC ServiceThe REP PIC service is an online application that allows

authorized users to obtain PICs for staff at any time 24/7. The REP PIC service will include the following data:

First and Last Name (Middle Name when available) Gender Date of Birth Social Security Number Michigan Credential License Number (when available) Personnel Identification Code

NOTE: Districts will want to be sure to limit the personnel that will have the capability of looking up PIC numbers for the district

Today’s Assignment and Homework

Continue to crosswalk your course files to the SCED numbers and double check those that have already been loaded in to Powerschool

Elementary and Middle schools need to double check course codes against the Prior to Secondary SCED Code Manual and those in Powerschool

Verify you have all PIC numbers on your Teachers Crosswalk your PIC numbers and SCED codes to

the REP Assignment Code Crosswalk Work on setting Completion Statuses to those

classes that have already completed for the school year
