IL Course Assignment
Contents
Introduction
The IL Course Assignment report creates a data file for submission to the ISBE SIS from stored grade information for the Student Course Assignment V2 (SCA), Outside Course Assignment (OCA), College Course Assignment (CCA), and Preschool Student Course Assignment (PSCA) reports.
- The SCA is used by districts to submit coursework completed by students at their district and is used for grades K-12.
- The OCA is used by districts to report coursework completed by students transferring into their district from non-IL public districts. Records with no grades or earned credit awarded are not extracted. The OCA is no longer a required state submission.
- The CCA is used by districts to submit the IPEDS number of the community college where a high school student is taking courses, and the name of the courses being taken.
- The PSCA is used by districts to submit coursework completed by students at their district and is used for students who are assigned grade level, Pre-Kindergarten (PK).
The Extract Viewer link is available on the State Reports page in the description area for the IL Course Assignment report. The Extract Viewer can be used as a troubleshooting tool.
Selection Criteria
Selection criteria determine which database records are used in the report. Refer to selection criteria for analysis when the report does not return the correct records.
For the IL Course Assignment report process, all students enrolled in the school or district at any time beginning July 1, 2010 are included in the process.
Student Selection
The report selects records from the Student table based on the following criteria:
- The student must not be excluded from state reporting.
Grade Selection
The report selects grade records from the Historical Grades table based on the following criteria:
- The grade was earned in the Year and Term selected on the Report Input page.
- The grade must not be excluded from state reporting.
- The grade must not be for section / course excluded from state reporting.
The report selects grade records from the Historical Grades table based on the following criteria:
- If there are no Historical Grades, current classes (CC Table) are included in the selection and extracted without Course End Date, Grade, and Course Credit for grades K-8. Grade is determined from the State Course Code.
- When run for CCA, records that extract are those that also extract for the SCA and have an IPEDS number.
- When run for OCA, records that fall within the reporting term and that have a Facility Code extract.
Report Setup
You must map the following data prior to running the reports:
- Letter Grade Mapping is used to map grade scales to the state Course Final Letter Grades.
- Term Grade Mapping is used to map, for each school, the Store Code which should be extracted for each term ID.
Both are found on the District > District Setup page in the Illinois State Information area at the bottom of the page.
For example, for school 100, Term ID 2001 (first semester), the store code might be S2 for the final grade for that semester. You must enter a record to designate the Store Code to extract for that term.
You must run the Store Grades process for a given term to create Historical Grades. Grades entered manually into Historical Grades via Single Entry are also used by the report. When manually entering Historical Grades for grades earned at other Illinois public districts, select the Exclude this Historical Grade from State Reporting for each grade if you do not want to report those grades to ISBE. For grades earned at non-Illinois public districts, click the Show Additional State Fields at the bottom of the Single Entry page and populate the information. You must select the OC Facility Type for a record to extract on the OCA report.
During Stored Grades manual entry, if a Course Number is entered, data is pulled from that course if the fields are not populated in the Additional State Fields. If a course section is entered, the data is will be extracted from that section; if blank, data is extracted from the course. If no course number is entered, data is extracted only from the fields on the Stored Grades page. If blanks are found in fields there, blanks will extract for those fields.
During Stored Grades manual entry, you must be logged into the school from which the grades will be extracted, rather than at the District Office.
When running the report prior to storing grades, records are extracted for the current courses per the Term Grade Mapping Start and End Dates. Particularly for grades K-8, the report may be run prior to end of term. If no Historical Grades are present, Course End Date, Course Credit, and Grade do not extract.
