Attachment 2: Part B Indicator 20 Data Rubric

Instructions for Completing the B-20 Data Rubric

In each cell, select 1 if your State met the requirements for the specified APR indicator or 618 collection, select 0 if your State did not meet the requirements. NA may only be used as described below. Note the definitions for the terms used in scoring this worksheet.

SPP/APR Data

1. Timely – Data for all indicators are submitted electronically to OSEP on or before February 2, 2009.

2. Valid and Reliable – Data provided are from the correct time period, consistent with the indicator’s measurement, consistent with IDEA 618 data submission (when appropriate), and are consistent with indicator data from previous years (unless explained).

3. Correct Calculation – The result produced for the indicator is determined by using the required calculation based on the each indicator’s instructions.

Timely Submission Points

States that submitted their SPP/APR on or before February 2, 2009 receive 5 points. States that did not submit by February 2, 2009 receive 0 points. Scores of 1, 2, 3, or 4 cannot be used in this cell.

618 Data

1. Timely – IDEA Section 618 data are submitted on or before each table’s due date. For States that are approved for EDFacts-only submission, timeliness is determined by the date the SEA-level data are submitted to EDFacts. For States that are not approved for EDFacts-only submission for a given collection, timeliness is determined by the date the data are submitted directly to the Data Accountability Center (DAC). Data submitted later than the established due date are not counted as timely, even if the State requested an extension.

2. Complete Data – No missing sections; all required data elements are provided. For example, when the instructions for IDEA Section 618 data require data broken down into subparts, data for all subparts are provided. Placeholder data are not acceptable. Placeholder data are data that do not accurately reflect the correct reporting period (e.g., using the previous year’s data).

3. Resolve Edit Checks - IDEA Section 618 data submissions do not have missing cells or internal inconsistencies.

4. Responded to Data Note Requests – Written explanation of year-to-year changes are provided for inclusion in Data Notes to accompany 618 data submissions as requested by OSEP. Submission dates that do not provide adequate time for “data note requests” are pre-populated with “N/A”. States that do not receive a “data note request” for a submission should score a “1” for that submission. When N/A is used, the maximum row total is decreased to 3.
