  2. Why CEDS?201

  3. Why CEDS? 201 • What are Common Education Data Standards? • What is CEDS? • Why do we need it? • Development: Who & How? • What does CEDS provide?

  4. Common Education Data Standards What are we talking about?

  5. Data standard: an agreed upon set of data names, definitions, options & technical specs Education institutions across P-20usemanydifferent data standards. But, there are certain data we allneed to understand,compare & exchange. For these, we need a common education data standard.

  6. FOR EXAMPLE: Demographic data Imagine... Your State PreK Program has a child also enrolled in Child Carethat uses a different education data standard.

  7. Here’s a child: Matthe SmithIII Race = Guamanian Gender = M Hmmm… Did you mean: Matthew ? Smith ? Suffix = III ? Race = NHOPI ? Sex = M ? State PreK Program Child Care

  8. FOR EXAMPLE: Demographic data Imagine... A studentfrom a high school in State Aenrolls in auniversity in State B that uses a different education data standard.

  9. Here’s a new student: Jonatha TsumuraII Race = Japanese Gender = M Hmmm… Did you mean: Jonathan ? Tsumura ? Suffix = II ? Race = Asian ? Sex = M ? High School in state A IHE in state B http://www.flickr.com/photos/squirmelia/247620009 http://www.flickr.com/photos/lmbernhardt71/5628965373

  10. The PINT is: The P-20 community needs a COMMON VOCABULARY for education data.

  11. What is CEDS?

  12. What is CEDS? • A national collaborative effort to develop voluntary, commondata standards for a key set of education data elements • A vocabularyincluding standard definitions, option sets & technical specifications to streamline sharing and comparing Voluntary Common Vocabulary

  13. Why do we need CEDS? Accurate, timely, and consistent data to inform decisionmaking Share & compare high quality data within & across P-20 sectors

  14. is Not: CEDS Required All or nothing A data collection An implementation Solely an ED undertaking A federal unit record system

  15. CEDS: Who & How?

  16. How do we get it done? • Assemble stakeholders representing the field • Use existing sources of standards • Check alignment with the field • Review ideas with the public • Model elements • Place in tools • Release

  17. CEDS v2 Stakeholders (1 of 2) • State Agencies • State Education Agencies • State Higher Education Agencies • Social Services Agencies • Local Education Agencies • K12 • Head Start • Social Services • Institutions of Higher Education • Public • Private • Community Colleges

  18. CEDS v2 Stakeholders (2 of 2) • U.S. Department of Education • NCES (SLDS, IPEDS) • EDFacts • Office of Educ. Technology • U.S. Health and Human Services • U.S. Department of Labor • Interoperability Standard Organizations • Education Associations • Foundations • Financial Student Aid • Office of the Undersecretary • Special Education

  19. Version 2 Development Draft One released for public review July─August 2011 Stakeholder Group meetings; development Spring─Summer 2011 Evaluation & planning Fall 2010

  20. Version 2 Development (continued) Stakeholder Group meeting; development December 2011 Final Draft released for public review October 2011 Stakeholder Group meetings; development Fall 2011

  21. Version 2 Development (continued) Released FINAL Version 2 standard January 2012

  22. What does CEDS provide?

  23. CEDS provides: • Powerful Stakeholder Tools & Models • Data Alignment Tool • Logical Data Model A Robust & Expanding Common, Voluntary Vocabulary drawn from existing sources

  24. Standard Information: The Basics Element Definition Hispanic or Latino Ethnicity Option set Yes No NotSelected Domain K12 Entity K12 Student Related Use Cases

  25. CEDS Logical Data Model Comprised of 2 distinct views: • Domain Entity Schema (DES) • A hierarchy of domains, entities, attribute categories, and attributes organizing and assigning elements to specific entities • Used primarily by people as an index to search, map, and organize elements • Normalized Data Schema (NDS) • The NDS Logical Model provides a standard framework for integration of P-20 data systems through a well-normalized “operational data store” • NDS factors the entities and attributes of the DES with standard technical syntax and 3rd normal form

  26. Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD)

  27. CEDS Alignment Tool Web-based tool that allows users to: • Import or input their data dictionaries • Aligntheir data to CEDS • Comparethemselves with others • Analyzetheir data in relation to various other CEDS-aligned efforts

  28. CEDS Use Case Generator Tool Builds on the CEDS Alignment Tool and allows stakeholders to: • Generate specificandrelevantmaps to a growing pool of CEDS aligned use cases
