Yesterday, the Texas Education Agency announced the schedule for regional stakeholder forums for the Texas Student Data System project. The System when implemented will provide user-friendly reports containing near real-time information about student achievement and campus and district performance.
The goals of the system are described as follows:
- "Create academic dashboards and early warning systems that help teachers and administrators ensure that every student reaches his/her potential
- Alleviate the data collection burden on school districts and improve data quality
- Integrate key data into TEA’s P–20 data warehouse, known as the Texas Public Education Information Resource (TPEIR), to better understand students’ preparedness to contribute to the 21st-century workforce."
The TEA is requesting feedback from future users of the new system, including teachers, campus, district, and regional leaders, and PEIMS Coordinators. The regional schedule is listed below.
