12. 13

13. Teacher Student Data Link Overview What is it? TSDL will help school districts in creating data links with students and the educators responsible for their learning. • Improve instruction. • Inform and increase educator effectiveness. • Supporting the continuous improvement of teaching and learning. • Provide a best practice framework for: • Teacher of record definition • Roster Verification- for collecting and validating linked teacher and student data. • Conduct research on data trends Why are we doing this? 14

14. Purpose of TSDL Study educator mobility, recruitment, and retention issues Identify Characteristics of effective educators 15

15. What will CDE do with TSDL Data? Data Use What can Districts do with TSDL Data? Provide differentiated support to teachers Support teachers to personalize classroom instruction Inform educator evaluation and staffing assignments Identify and deploy district resources to meet demonstrated needs. • Provide educator effectiveness data to preparation programs for program improvement • Research best practices that result in increased student outcomes • Deploy department resources to areas or regions with demonstrated needs 16

16. What makes up the Teacher Student Data Link? • TSDL Components • Educator of Record definition • Educator ID • Roster Verification • Standard Course Codes 17

17. TSDL - Components 18

18. What is happening with TSDL? • Site Visits • Traveling across the state to provide information on TSDL and Roster Verification • Pilots • TSDL Pilot • Phase I (4/8-4/19) - Testing business rules of development within pipeline • Phase II (5/13- August)- Continue testing business rules with all districts. • Roster Verification Pilot • Phase I (2/4-3/1) - Extract data and introduce software to pilot districts. • Phase II (3/15-5/24) – Work with pilot teachers and administrators to verify rosters and begin to discuss local business rules • Lessons Learned • Course instructor data is stored in separate “HR” database. • 2 Audiences- Data and Administration • Significant amount of time will be spent locally developing business rules around SIS operation along with roster verification processes. 19

19. Next Steps • Communications Strategies • Updating website • Purpose/Fact sheet/What is TSDL?/Roster Verification/Extract elements/Timelines. • Weekly Webinars • Tuesday 11:00-12:00 Data communications • Other webinars to begin messaging for Administration • Follow up with Roster Verification Pilots • Continue discussions around local business rules. • Continue to explore other options to verify rosters (xls, BFK, SIS). 20

20. Implications • 2012-2013 Data was only used for the pilots. • 2013-2014 Data will be collected in pipeline and will provide semi-clean data as districts begin to work with their local data and the TSDL extract. • 2014-2015 Data collected will be used to begin trend analysis for research at the state level. Specific analysis at the district level. 21
