Absent No Data No Sch 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 • Choices on drop down list include • Absent • No data • No school • 0-10 possible points • Use preferences to define the period names and define how many points are possible per period. • If rating 3 school expectations on a 0-2 scale, there are 6 possible points per period, if rating 5 expectations on a 0-2 scale, there are 10 possible points per period
How to Get CICO • School has an Active SWIS Account and SWIS Facilitator • A team is defined to coordinate CICO program and use data for decision-making
SWIS-CICO Readiness • The team has scheduled meetings and the data needed for decision making for students using CICO • A CICO Coordinator is trained as a SWIS user
SWIS-CICO Readiness • School has CICO program features including: • description of program, • daily report card for student, • a data system for decision making, • a coordinator, • a process for identifying students, and • process/materials for training adults, students, families
District Integration Update • S-Dex • A software application that builds a bridge from SWIS to district databases • Data entry into SWIS • S-DEX can be located at: http://sdex.swis.org • An S-DEX Manual is available under resources on www.swis.org and provides specific step by step instructions for set up and use.
The Good News S-Dex works with any system that can upload an Excel file S-Dex allows district to upload all SWIS schools at one time S-Dex is free S-Dex is working now The Tough News S-Dex requires the district Information Tech to build an upload query S-Dex requires knowledge of the host system in the district. As a SWIS facilitator you can only show the option, you can’t deliver the data S-Dex
