Tool Search: Ed-Fi

Ed-Fi is a data interchange standard and framework created by the Dell Foundation to allow K-12 educational institutions to consolidate and analyze data, and communicate this data with each other. It also provides a dashboard toolkit from which users can create dashboards to analyze data from the student, district, state (and eventually national) level.  More information can be found by referencing the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) resources: https://education.mn.gov/MDE/DSE/MDE074648

Ed-Fi v3.X

Resyncing will generate a large volume of items in your event queue, so it may be helpful to plan your resync for an off-peak time period and resync in groups of calendars rather than all calendars.
