Teacher Student Data Link Overview

Why are we doing

this?

What is it?

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

TSDL will help school districts in creating data links with students and the educators responsible for their learning.

14

Purpose of TSDL

Study educator mobility, recruitment, and retention issues

Identify Characteristics of effective educators

15

Data Use

Provide educator eff ecti veness data to preparati on programs for program improvement

Research best practi ces that result in increased student outcomes

Deploy department resources to areas or regions with demonstrated needs

What can Districts do with TSDL Data? Provide diff erenti ated support to teachers Support teachers to personalize classroom instructi on Inform educator evaluati on and staffi ng assignments Identi fy and deploy district resources to meet demonstrated

needs.

What will CDE do with TSDL Data?

16

What makes up the Teacher Student Data Link?

TSDL Components

1. Educator of Record definition

2. Educator ID

3. Roster Verification

4. Standard Course Codes

17

Educator of Record Definition

• Individuals who have been assigned primary responsibility for a student's learning in a subject/course with aligned performance measures

• Created the term “Contributing Professional,” denoting educators who provide additional support services aimed at increasing a student’s learning

Educator ID• Creates a unique

teacher and principal identifier system which allows examination of issues related to teaching and school leadership

• Allows for improved teacher quality through preparation and providing effective training and support

• An identifier is not a mechanism to punish or blame individuals

Roster Verification

• Allows teachers to verify which students they are responsible for - providing an accurate link between student outcomes and teacher influence

• Ensures accurate instructional attribution, resulting in better effectiveness measures across the board

Standard Course Codes

• A statewide common course catalog with a set of approved courses for schools based on course content

• Teaching assignments are linked to the course catalog

TSDL - Components

18

What is happening with TSDL?

PilotsTSDL 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.

Site Visits• Traveling across the state to provide information on TSDL and Roster Verification

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

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.
