Center Grove Community School Corporation has expressed interest in partnering with EdWire and INsite as part of a potential MSDF grant initiative. Currently, teachers record student scores for Fountas and Pinnell reading level assessments by hand. These values are then manually entered into a large master Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

In addition to assessment performance data, intervention data is also tracked in this spreadsheet. This manual transfer of data is a cumbersome and time-consuming process, which is prone to error.

To respond to these challenges, a "Response to Intervention (RTI)" web application was developped and allows district users (teachers, etc.) to input student's assessment scores as well as student interventions.

At a high level, this web application supports the following functionality:

1. Assessment metadata creation/management
2. Intervention metadata creation/management
3. Student assessment score entry
4. Student intervention recording
5. Analytics on assessment scores
6. Analytics on intervention effectiveness

• yarn
• Visual Studio 2019 or later
• .Net Core 3.1
• Redis (running on localhost:6379)

• Run yarn install in a command prompt from the \Ed-Fi-X-RTI\src\EdFi.RtI.Web folder

yarn install

• Open \Ed-Fi-X-RTI\src\EdFi.RtI.sln in Visual Studio
• Configure the EdFi.Rti.Web project (Standalone mode)
  • Update app.config.json
    • Confirm that the startupMode is set to Standalone

    "startupMode": "Standalone"
    

• Configure the EdFi.RtI.Api (Standalone mode)
  • Update appsettings.json
    • Confirm that the StartupMode is set to Standalone

    "StartupMode": "Standalone"
    

    • Modify UserRoleMappings to add the Staff Classifications for each Admin or Teacher role

    "UserRoleMappings": {
      "Admins": [
        "LEA Administrator",
        "LEA System Administrator",
        "School Administrator",
        "Operational Support"
      ],
      "Teachers": [
        "Teacher"
      ]
    },    
    

    • Modify OdsApiSettings to setup access to your Ed-Fi API

      "OdsApiSettings": {
        "Version": "v3", -- v2 or v3
        "TokenUrl": "[EdFiApiUrl]/oauth/token/",
        "ResourcesUrl": "[EdFiApiUrl]/data/v3/2011/ed-fi/",
        "CompositesUrl": "[EdFiApiUrl]/composites/v1/2011/ed-fi/",
        "ClientId": "[ClientId]",
        "ClientSecret": "[ClientSecret]",
        "AssessmentNamespace": "[SomeNamespace]"
      },
    

• Confirm both the EdFi.RtI.Api and EdFi.Rti.Web projects as selected in Startup Projects
• Make a copy of the \Ed-Fi-X-RTI\src\EdFi.RtI.Web\public\app.config.json file in the same folder and name it config.json
• Rebuild solution in Visual Studio
• Run the application in Visual Studio

• We are currently supporting Ed-Fi v2.5 and v3.3
• There currently is a dependency on REDIS which will be removed in future version and replaced by Ed-Fi API Composites.
• A new Ed-Fi Claim Set is necessary in order to provide the RTI web application access to the required Ed-Fi API endpoint.
  • You can find the claimset script under /scripts/claimsets/EdFi_Security - RTI ClaimSet.sql
  • Note that you will also need to restart your Ed-Fi Api service for the new claim set to take effect.
