OneRoster Certified

On Tuesday May 14th, the MiDataHub Team completed work to certify the OneRoster API available through our cockpit application . While we have had districts and vendors working successfully with the OneRoster API, this certification provides reassurance that our implementation meets all of IMS Global’s requirements - we can now say that we officially do. Our hope is that this will allow us to integrate a larger number of vendors as that standard gains broader adoption and where that standard fits the integration need.

MiDataHub YouTube Channel

In the last few months the MiDataHub team members have been working proactively to create a YouTube channel providing end users throughout the state a quick, one stop resource to review videos on utilizing different functionalities that MiDataHub provides. Youtube Channel Videos are organized by topic and cover areas in general Data Hub knowledge (Overview), Data Hub Cockpit tutorials, and areas within navigating reports and creating custom exports, both of which provide a high level of validating the quality of data passed from the Student Information System (SIS). These videos are updated every other week. We are continually exploring how to expand and provide the most benefit to users of MiDataHub and would appreciate any ideas you might have on videos to create in the future by following this link ( Ideas ) and submitting those ideas to us directly. If you have any questions please let us know by sending an email to support@midatahub.org.

MiRead Licensing Approve for Title or At-Risk Funding by the MDE

The MiRead team is pleased to announce that MDE has confirmed that district licensing fees are an appropriate expenditure for At-Risk and/or Title One funding for districts that identify literacy as an area of need. The Department’s commitment to support literacy efforts at the local, regional and statewide level are much appreciated. With the June 1st deadline to sign up fast approaching, the approval from MDE is well-timed and affords much needed flexibility. If your district is considering using MiRead for the fall, please be sure to connect with your ISD about working together to implement MiRead. Timeline, pricing, and other details are included in the MiRead Flyer .  Questions can be submitted to thoag@gomasa.org .
