Data Systems - RTTT Assurance Area C
NYSED is creating an Instructional Reporting and Improvement System ("IRIS") as described in its RTTT application, which shall include instructional reporting, collaboration, and platform features (referred to as the "Education Data Portal" or "EDP"). IRIS will serve as a single platform providing access to educational data and applications for use by local education agencies ("LEAs"), as well as others across the State of New York and in other states. It will enable diverse stakeholders - including educators, parents, policy leaders, and researchers - to access and analyze educational data, make decisions, and take actions to improve student outcomes. IRIS will also enable third party developers to create and distribute new software applications for use across the State.
