Abstract:

Kansas began development of its Statewide Longitudinal Data System in 2005 with the collection of individual student data via KIDS (Kansas Individual Data on Students). Through both federal and state funding the system has been expanded to an Enterprise Data System which includes an enterprise data warehouse and business intelligence solutions spanning early childhood though postsecondary education, and is now being connected to workforce data. With this ever-growing source of rich longitudinal data come concerns and considerations for privacy, data quality, and effective use of the data to improve education. This session will describe KSDE's journey in designing and developing this system, including the considerations for governance, data quality, sustainability, data use, and technological expansion.
