Student Intervention Interchange - v2.1
This interchange describes prescribed interventions available, implementations of interventions, studies of intervention effectiveness, and education content used in the course of interventions.
Like all standard Ed-Fi interchanges, this schema references the Ed-Fi Core XSD and can be extended using the Ed-Fi Extensions Framework. See the XML Design & Implementation Guidelines for more information.
Use Cases
The Student Intervention Interchange can be used to:
Exchange interventions prescribed for particular purposes.
Exchange intervention prescriptions available to districts or schools.
Exchange descriptions of education content (e.g., videos, handouts, games) used in interventions.
Exchange intervention implementations and student results.
Exchange information about formal studies of interventions.

Entities
The following table describes the primary entities of which the Student Intervention Interchange is composed.
Name | Description |
|---|---|
EducationContent | This entity represents materials for students or teachers that can be used for teaching, learning, research, and more. Education content includes full courses, course materials, modules, intervention descriptions, textbooks, streaming videos, tests, software, and any other tools, materials, or techniques used to support access to knowledge. |
InterventionPrescription | This entity represents a formal prescription of an instructional approach focusing on the specific techniques and materials used to teach a given subject. This can be prescribed by academic research, an interventions vendor, or another entity. |
Intervention | An implementation of an instructional approach focusing on the specific techniques and materials used to teach a given subject. |
InterventionStudy | An experimental or quasi-experimental study of an intervention technique. |
StudentInterventionAssociation | This association indicates the students participating in an intervention. |

Descriptor Dependencies
This interchange references the following Ed-Fi Descriptors, thus requiring them to have been defined using the Descriptors interchange prior to this interchange. For more information on the Ed-Fi Descriptor Pattern, see the XML Design & Implementation Guidelines.
Descriptor Name | Description |
|---|---|
DiagnosisDescriptor | Optional. This descriptor defines diagnoses that interventions are intended to target. |
GradeLevelDescriptor | Optional. This descriptor defines the set of grade levels. The map to known Ed-Fi enumeration values is required. |
LanguageDescriptor | Optional. This descriptor defines the language(s) that are spoken or written. It is strongly recommended that entries use only ISO 639-3 language codes: for CodeValue, use the 3 character code; for ShortDescription and Description use the full language name. |
