CEDStandards / CEDS-Elements

The Common Education Data Standards (CEDS) are an education data management initiative whose purpose is to streamline the understanding of data within and across P-20W institutions and sectors. CEDS includes a common vocabulary complete with standard elements names, definitions, and option sets. This repository contains all the CEDS elements, definitions, option sets and their definitions, and entities and definitions. Its purpose is to expand that vocabulary to meet the needs of every education stakeholder. The expanded vocabulary is then added to the CEDS Integration Data Store and CEDS Data Warehouse – the other two repositories located here.

Use Case Title Add new CEDS elements for Course Credit Weight and GPA Added Value for a course

Target Date Needed ASAP

Use Case Description NCDPI collects information pertaining to the actual weights and added value courses carry in a student’s GPA and grading. In addition to storing if a course is weighted in the GPA, North Carolina has a need to store the actual Course Credit Weight, as well as the GPA Added Value. This use case is to ask the greater CEDS community if there is a need outside of NC to add these elements to CEDS.

• Course Credit Weight is defined as the amount of weight this course carries in a weighted GPA. • GPA Added Value is defined as the number to be added to GPA for a course. Usually for AP courses there is a bump to the GPA, such as 0.125.
