Tool Search: Assessment Data Mart

Data Marts are stored collections of various student data records that districts and states use to federally report. Information stored in a data mart is uniquely collected by a snapshot and is a static copy of the original record. District-level and state-level users should follow the two-step validation and authentication process all data marts use to ensure the most accurate data is reported.

The BIE Assessment Data Mart is a collection of student assessment data that was previously added to the student's assessment record. Data collected and stored in this data mart can be reviewed in two ways:

Assessment Data Mart Report - information is reported in PDF or CSV format and must be generated individually for each school.
Assessment Report (Ad Hoc Reporting) - information for one to multiple schools displays on a pivot table where data can be analyzed using drill-down methods, sorting features, filter options and graphs to summarize the results.

The BIE Graduation Rate Data Mart tool is available in both BIE District Edition and NASIS State Edition sites.

BIE Assessment Data Mart Tool

Read - View the BIE Assessment Data Mart tool.
Write - Generate snapshots and reports using the BIE Assessment Data Mart tool.
Add- N/A
Delete - N/A

Users must have tool rights to both the BIE Assessment Data Mart tool and its validation / authentication sub-tools. Users with Read rights to the BIE Assessment Data Mart tool will receive a notification in their Process Alerts when either a snapshot or report has finished processing. Only BIE State Edition users can generate an Authentication Snapshot. The Authentication Snapshot sub-right is ONLY available in NASIS State Edition sites.

For more information about Tool Rights and how they function, see the Tool Rights article.

Student's enrollment start and end dates are the same
Student's enrollment is marked as BIE Exclude

Assessments:

For an assessment to report, the following conditions must be met:

Assessment must have Testing Window start and end dates. This is identified as the Start Date and End Date entered in Test Setup for the assessment.
Assessment type must be either GEN: General or ALT: Alternate
Assessment must be marked as 'Report Via Data Mart'

Assessment Requirements

Tool Search: Assessment Center

Before any test data can be added to a student's assessment record (where it can then be later retrieved by the data mart), a test structure must be defined using the Assessment Center tool. This tool controls what data elements should be collected from a test, how they will display on the student's assessment record, and if the assessment will be available to the BIE Assessment Data Mart.

Click here to expand...

Test Setup (Assessment)

The following fields (at minimum) must be defined for the BIE Assessment Data Mart to successfully collect and report student assessment records. Refer to the Assessment Center - Test Detail article for additional information and documentation about all of the Test Detail fields.

Field	Description
Name	Name of the test.
Code	State or District-specific code associated with the test. This code is primarily used to identify the test when using Campus Ad Hoc reporting tools, graduation criteria and state reporting extracts.
Start Date	First date the test is offered (or start date of the testing window).
End Date	Last date the test is offered (or end date of the testing window).
Assessment Type	Test type indicating whether the test is considered an alternate assessment, general assessment, assessment for EL identification or an assessment that measures English Proficiency in EL students.
Field Test	BIE District Edition
Report Via Data Mart	Identifies which assessments will report to the BIE Assessment Data Mart. NASIS State Edition only.

Data Mart Workflow

Additional information regarding the process and workflow of a Data Mart can be viewed in the Data Mart Workflow article.
All Data Marts follow a two-step Validation and Authentication process. By following this process, student data can be reviewed and corrected before it is submitted on for federal reporting.

Generate a Snapshot

Snapshots are the student data collection method used by data marts to capture specific data points (first name/last name, gender, etc.) from various locations in Campus and build them into a data table. Student information captured by a snapshot is static and is not reflective of real-time changes. As changes are made to student information, a new snapshot must be generated to update the data mart.

Click here to expand...

For each school included in the snapshot, one data table is built. A school must have at least one eligible calendar for a snapshot to generate. This process can be done for one to multiple schools at a time, but processing time may vary when more than one school is selected.

The Authentication Snapshot is only available to State Edition users.

BIE Assessment Data Mart Snapshot Editor

Select Snapshot from the BIE Assessment Data Mart tool.
Select a Snapshot Type: Validation or Authentication.
Select a Cohort Year. If calendar year is 19-20 the cohort year is 2020.
Select a pre-created Ad Hoc filter from the School Selection Filter. (Optional) This field is only available in State Edition.
Select one or multiple schools. One snapshot will generate per school.
Select Generate. Notification will be sent to Process Alerts when the snapshot is done processing.

Consider generating new snapshots when:

New scores were added to student assessment records after a snapshot was generated and should be included in the data mart.
Corrections made to student information fields are not reflected when the report is generated.
A length of time has passed from when the last snapshot was generated and the final report is being submitted.

Snapshots can be generated as needed. However, a history of snapshots is not be stored and data from the previous snapshot will be overwritten when a new snapshot is generated.

Snapshot Editor Field Descriptions

Field	Description
Snapshot Type (State Edition only)	This field determines the type of snapshot to generate. Validation captures the records from the user interface and builds a data table. A validation snapshot is required before an authentication snapshot can be generated. After generating the validation snapshot use the validation report to review the data. Authentication is a copy of the data collected from the most recent validation snapshot and is used for federal reporting submission. After generating the authentication snapshot use the authentication report for final sign-off and submission. Consider generating a final validation snapshot before the authentication snapshot is generated. This will ensure any changes made during the validation process are captured and all correct information is submitted for final reporting.
School Year	Identifies the year the snapshot is capturing and collecting attendance data from.
School Selection Filter (Ad hoc) (State Edition only)	Only available in State Edition sites. Allows for the selection of an ad hoc filter to filter down to a pre-defined list of schools.
School	Allows for the selection of one or multiple schools. Snapshot processing time may vary if more than one school is selected. Use the search field located at the top of the school list to search for a specific school. Only one snapshot will be generated and stored per school.
Count of Selected Schools	Displays a numeric value for the amount of schools that have been selected to be included in the snapshot.
Select All	Selects all, or deselects all schools across all pages to be included in the snapshot.
Generate	Select after all other required field selections have been made. A report is not automatically produced when a snapshot has finished generating. Refer to the Report section for further details. Campus does not retain a history of snapshots. When a new snapshot is generated, data from the previous snapshot will be overwritten. Users may choose to generate a new snapshot as corrections are being made to various areas of student information.
Reset	Returns screen to original defaults.
Back	Returns user to the BIE Assessment Data Mart editor screen.

Notifications

Users with Read (R) access to the BIE Graduation Rate Data Mart tool will receive notifications in their Process Alerts when:

A snapshot has been submitted. Only the user who submitted the snapshot will receive this notification. A notification report displays by clicking on the message link.
A snapshot (validation or authentication) has been submitted and has completed syncing. To view the data captured by the completed snapshot, a report must be generated.
A report is available. If a user selected Submit to Batch Queue to generate the report (validation or authentication), a notification will display when it is ready to view. Click the message link to view the report. The report can also be retrieved from the data mart's Report tool.
An error has prevented a record from syncing to the state. The DIS Sync error can be further reviewed in the Error Log under System Administration > Data Interchange.
- Errors can not be corrected in the snapshot. If a correction is needed, it must be made in the location the data is entered. Generate a new snapshot to sync the corrected record.
- If a record failed to sync, only that record is affected and will not prevent other records from syncing.
