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 Change the word "learner" to "person" in the element Person Relationship to Learner Lives With Indicator

Use Case Description The element "Person Relationship to Learner Lives With Indicator" could have broader meaning if the word "learner" was changed to "Person" without losing the present meaning that indicates the learner lives with the related person. We know through context that the person is a learner. This change is breaking for the "elements" in that it changes an element name and technical name. It is not a breaking change for the IDS since the present expression is a column named "LivesWithIndicator". Note that the column is also placed in the PersonRelationship table which may indicate the intent of this present use case when the IDS was originally designed. The proposal would also change the definition from "Indicates whether or not the learner lives with the related person." to "Indicates whether or not the person lives with the related person."

Use Case Background Provide information related to why these changes/additions are needed.
