Meeting Materials

Agenda and Notes

Analysis of comparing the new Ed-Fi model with the CEDS model; data elements that your organization wants to operationalize

• Ed Comer presented the Ed-Fi Draft Entity Model

  • Enrollment - collect public pre-K in k-12 domain model

  • Pre-k outside of the public collected in a new entity using StudentCommunityProviderAssociation and  student-education-organization association and the new entity StudentCommunityProviderEdOrgAssociation. 

  • Open issue is the CEDS Work for possible data in EC domain

  • Need the Ed-Fi EC SEA community to select those areas (and those attributes) that 

    • Match their requirements for data to be gathered

    • Have specific, endorsed data use cases

    • Have sight to the operationalization of the data

    • Have identified source systems for the data

• CEDS Elements - Do we want to include the following?

  • Licensing

    • SC - involve in pre-public school level - licensing is a low priority

    • DE -  I think licensing programs makes sense to include! 

    • IN  - would be helpful to track participation by type of provider (identified thru licensing)

    • Helps with supply/demand to get capacity availability

    • MN - All 3 elements are on my radar

    • EdWise - provide attribute for data exchange

  • Quality improvement and technical assistance to providers

  • Immunization policy

    • IN - providers do have record based on requirement; helpful for provider to have access to state registry

  • Other questions

    • SC - Child find?

      • TEA -  We are going to collect Child Find through the Student Special Education Eligibility Association.

      • Sayee - model developed to satisfy the “Child find” use case

    • SC - HeadStart requires 10% identified as SPED

      • Program linkage to HeadStart program

      • Student Enrollment in Private Institution can be captured in the new entity StudentCommunityProviderAssociation, the demographics in the existing StudentEdOrgAssociation and the new StudentEdOrgEarlyChildhoodAssociation, and the sped eligibility will be captured in the StudentSpedEligibilityAssociation.  

    • IN - IEP vs ISSP

      • Model is designed as 1 entity to capture both part C and B evaluations

    • MN program - https://education.mn.gov/mdeprod/idcplg?IdcService=GET_FILE&dDocName=PROD034545&RevisionSelectionMethod=latestReleased&Rendition=primary

Next steps:

• Sayee to schedule a meeting with Dan and Wyatt to walk through the Child Find (StudentSpecialEducationProgramEligibilityAssociation) entity.  

• Ed and Sayee to update the model with set of attribute based on the feedback and circulate for review (via email or 1x1 meeting)

Next meeting: TBD
