High-quality state early intervention (IDEA Part C) data systems enable state staff to use data to improve their programs and results for children and families. This Brief provides an overview of states’ early intervention data system capacity and describes differences based on lead agency type.
Linking and integrating IDEA data with different data systems can help U.S. states, territories, and other entities answer critical questions about children and families, their needs, and experiences with IDEA services and supports. This Brief shares what states were doing in spring 2021 to share, link and integrate their IDEA data with data from other early childhood programs.
In this session, presenters shared the value of an ECIDS (early childhood integrated data system) to IDEA programs, whether your state operates one, and when and how to become an active partner. Utah shared its approach and the process for including Part C data.
This IDIO Workshop on Data Linking and Integration highlighted tools and strategies to improve DLI for Part C to B transition. Participants collaborated to identify challenges and solutions with their program’s processes.
DaSy, ECTA, and the Waters Center for Systems Thinking teamed with four states to improve their Part C/619 programs by increasing the knowledge and skills needed to improve data culture and become systems thinkers.
The data inquiry cycle is an iterative sequence of six stages: planning and design for data collection, data collection, data analysis and interpretation, reporting, dissemination, and taking action.
DaSy’s DMS Crosswalk between the Part C Data Processes Toolkit and OSEP’s DMS Data Protocol helps states identify possible gaps in documentation required for OSEP’s differentiated monitoring and support process.
Do you need help identifying possible gaps in documentation required for OSEP’s differentiated monitoring and support process? This crosswalk is designed to provide an overview of the major themes covered in the Differentiated Monitoring and Support (DMS) Part B/C Data Protocol and where those themes could be addressed when a state chooses to use the DaSy Part C Data Processes Toolkit.
October 27, 2022. Events or circumstances that disrupt use of a state Part C or Part B 619 data system can negatively impact program operations, management, and accountability.
October 2022. This resource is intended to help Part C and Part B 619 leaders understand, prepare for, and respond to various types of data system disruptions. Part C and Part B 619 programs rely on their data systems to support everyday operations. Many states have experienced an event or circumstance that has limited or restricted their data system(s) from being accessed or used as planned. Disruptions to a state’s data system may jeopardize access to accurate information required to meet a wide range of data use needs.
