Hello and a wonderful day to you!

During the previous academic year, we began implementing the Standards for our chosen courses. While some of these Standards were linked with their respective rubrics, others were not. At present, we’re keen on assessing and reviewing our data.

Upon exploring the Data Hub, I noticed multiple data sets related to outcomes. Our objective is to identify which courses utilize these Standards and gain a broader understanding of their mastery levels.

I’m reaching out to anyone who has experience working with Outcomes data sets. Could you kindly guide me on which data sets I should download for this purpose? Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Hi Rogelio,

    Thankyou for reaching us through community!

    Since you objective is to identify which outcome./standard is used in courses, you can refer to Outcomes Course Specific Scales

    The Outcomes Course Specific Scales Brightspace Data Set provides details on which achievement scales and achievement thresholds are being used in each of your courses. The only available data for course specific achievement scales is from May 2023 onwards.

    You can refer below article for more details on each of the datasets related to Outcomes

    Also, Entity Relationship Diagram in the above article shows the relationships between entities used to create Brightspace Data Sets for Outcomes. To enlarge the diagram, right-click on the image and select Open image in a new tab.

    Thanks,
