1 | Discuss the prioritization rubric: CCC Data: Data Source Prioritization - Draft |
We adjusted the data source list to include a column for "level of access required", so that this information could be captured in the MOU’s necessary to bring this data in to the DW and share it with colleges/districts. We discussed the issue of data quality, and decided to adjust the draft prioritization rubric to remove data quality from the scoring for prioritization; instead addressing data quality as a separate issue from priority. There was a good discussion on how to best leverage the IR community knowledge of working with data elements that are newer or seen as poor quality to share that knowledge; along with conversation on need of a staging area or vetting place where people with expertise to work with the data. Barney introduced the MDM program as a strategy and tool that would be extremely important for the integrity of this data. We discussed splitting out data sources in the spreadsheet to identify different rows for raw from processed data, such as CASAS TOPS PRO data which may exist as raw data, which is then used by two initiatives, and then placed in the WestEd launchboard. Alex voiced an opinion that the minute you derive values you create a different data set. The IR community is regularly asked to recreate calculations and are looking for raw data as well as calculated data. Alex spoke to the data harmonization work and need for dictionaries that document the derived values or metrics. Lou spoke of Data Lake used to collect data regardless of quality, with quality addressed before moving data to the DW or data marts where it needs to be high quality and usable. Lou also spoke of different technologies that may be leveraged, watch which address a different technical need based on the needs identified, including the potential for AI to help address data quality. We ended the meeting identifying the need to address
There was a request to address Change Management as an agenda item on the next call. Barney discussed there being additional resources being brought on board to support MIS work which can be directed as additional bandwidth to support this work. Barney may discuss these resources at the next meeting. Proposed agenda for September
