Student View
The Student view is used to support the Essential Question 3 (EQ 3) Dashboard. Essential Question 3 states: How do educators (including newly hired) counts and characteristics vary across districts/campuses?. In EQ 3, student data is used in just a single chart to compare student race/ethnicity breakdown to staff breakdown.
Prerequisites for Ed-Fi Data Standard
The primary data required to support the insights provided in the dashboard are students, student race, and student enrollment. Student data can be found in the edfi.Student table. Race information can be found in the edfi.StudentEducationOrganizationAssociationRace table. Note: Students can have more than one race (signified by more than one row per student in the edfi.StudentEducationOrganizationAssociationRace table), these students will be categorized as multiracial by the view. Student enrollment determines the geographic breakdown and can be found in the edfi.StudentSchoolAssociation table
Additionally, you must ensure that all descriptor values used by your district are loaded into the platform.
