3 Brief History of the SIF Implementation Specification Today’s Standards Landscape Assessment Needs SIF Alignment

4 Copyright © SIF Association Brief History of SIF Association

5 Copyright © SIF Association SIF Association Over 15 years of standards development Implementations All 50 states 29 states have implemented or in the process of implementing statewide 40% of the United Kingdom All states and territories in Australia Europe, Canada, Africa and South America Truly open standard Over 2,800 data elements Over 155 data objects

7 Copyright © SIF Association SIF: What has come before… SIF Version 2.x Focus:Vertical SIF Locale:US, UK, and AU Scope: The District and State Community:Primarily SEA and LEA driven Student Locator, Vertical Reporting Zone to Zone communication, Multi-Zone Agents Web services State–wide deployments – 29 that have implemented or are in process of implementing Separation of data model and infrastructure 95% compatibility with existing CEDS 2.0 K-12

10 Copyright © SIF Association Level Setting Interoperability Goal: the ability to make it possible to use any data, any digital content or any software application across any computer system Community developed tech standards – driven by communities with a particular focus Needs are expanding…

11 Copyright © SIF Association Why Develop and Use Standardized Data? Sound educational policies Increase student achievement Comparison Accuracy and timeliness Education research Facilitate reporting

12 Copyright © SIF Association Why Develop and Use Technical Standards? Access to all data Scalability dependent upon funding cycles Easier comparison and quality Best of breed solutions Easy discovery, access and use of learning resources and tools Integrated instruction, assessment and reporting

13 Copyright © SIF Association Top 5 Technical Standards Myths: 1.Technical standards are for others * Cost/time effective * International, cross-markets * Larger market segments * Easy integration 2. Technical standards are limiting * Greater choice of tools * Flexible, adaptable designs * Easier integration 3. Technical standards reinvent the wheel * Predictable product/services * Predictable evolution of infrastructure/functions

14 Copyright © SIF Association Top 5 Technical Standards Myths: 4. Technical standards do not impact development * Interoperable infrastructure can speed utilization * Independent platform and applications allowable 5. Technical standards do not impact delivery * Stable compliance * Compatible playback platforms * Easier maintainability/re-purposing

16 CEDS V2 Assessment - SIF

17 Copyright © SIF Association Evolution of Expectations Silos between the business and use cases of data identification, management, movement and utilization disappearing Interoperability demanded but cannot be too complicated and must be seamless Marketplace and policies becoming “learner” focused and not “stuff” focused Change in education – time for change in standards support?

25 Needs

26 Instructional improvement systems alignment Ongoing clarity in standards landscape Quick access to data environment while maintaining security and privacy controls Alignment between data, learning, assessment and reporting What do we need?

27 Copyright © SIF Association Fueling early warning systems and near real-time decision support systems Empowering service delivery to where the student is when the student needs it Teacher evaluation and effectiveness Seamless application integration What do we need?

28 Copyright © SIF Association SIF Alignment

29 Copyright © SIF Association SIF: What is happening NOW… SIF Version 3.x Focus:Enterprise SIF Locale:Global (US, AU, UK, and more on the way) Scope:P-20: Early Childhood to Workforce Community:Federal/SEA/LEA and Vendors CEDS-ON-THE-WIRE Modern 21 st century infrastructure Gateway to other standards (PESC, NIEM) Additional data model changes to support teaching and learning

30 Copyright © SIF Association SIF 3.0: CEDS-ON-THE-WIRE Next Generation Specification and Tools Community-based open standard developed and driven by thousands of members and proven implementations Cost effective implementation of interoperability Deep partnership with other specification and standard organizations P-20 Support for data temporality and longitudinal comparison of data Query the model for any desired entities or elements

31 Copyright © SIF Association SIF 3.0: CEDS-ON-THE-WIRE Next Generation Specification and Tools Data dictionary tool aligned with CEDS Alignment tool allows for: quick and accurate element creation, mapping and alignment. automation of element management when sources- like CEDS- upgrade to a new version. Allows for internationalization and customization Manages global trunk entities and attributes Specification Generation tool that automates and aides generating a new spec or changes to the spec

32 Copyright © SIF Association SIF 3.0: CEDS-ON-THE-WIRE CEDS and Assessment Model Support Full support of CEDS 2.0 Data Model Automation support of CEDS versioning into the SIF serialization model Full integration with the the Common Core Assessment model Support / Enable CEDS on the Wire Ability to certify that CEDS entities, relationships, elements, and code sets are supported using SIF 3.0 Test Harness

33 Copyright © SIF Association SIF 3.0: CEDS-ON-THE-WIRE New Infrastructure Extensibility to support state and local requirements Capacity to transport any data model over Web Services protocols Use of automation and local control to rapidly implement new requirements Set of functional services to operationalize education

34 Copyright © SIF Association SIF 3.0: CEDS-ON-THE-WIRE New Infrastructure Enabling master data management for the enterprise Standard, cross-platform messaging - multiple bindings to SOAP, REST, JSON Data and service broker interfaces enables: enterprise class security, privacy, identity management, and access control.
