EDUCATIONAL MARKETPLACE
Just The Facts: Data Usage
Some in the educational marketplace attempt to dismiss SIF utilization to promote their own work. To address this misinformation, the A4L Community recently developed and disseminated a brief usage survey, which was sent to marketplace providers
and LEA/SEA data leaders. Even with the short timeframe and limited response, the impact numbers depict the continued usage and growth of the SIF Specifications. This quick presentation shows some of the survey results.
Helping to bring hundreds of SIF 2 applications, supporting millions of students, a clear first step towards migrating an application from SIF 2 to SIF 3.
