Student Test Attributes Upload File
On this page:
Introduction
The Student Test Attributes file supports the assignment of attributes (accommodations) for the 2022-23 Cambium Assessment STAAR 3-8, STAAR EOC, STAAR Alternate 2 and TELPAS/TELPAS Alternate test administrations.
- This extract supports all the attribute/accommodation fields in the Cambium Student Attributes File template such as Text-to-Speech, Spelling Assistance, etc.
Students must first be registered for their assessments by uploading the Student Assessment Registration File to the Cambium system. Once registered, students can then be assigned attributes (accommodations) by uploading the separate Student Attributes Upload file.
The only students included in the Attributes file are those for whom attributes have been entered in the Student Assessment Pre-Code pages. See the related release note for the Student Assessment Pre-Code page updates for details about the data collection.
Selection Criteria
Students assigned a single attribute for a single assessment or subject will have one row in the file.
Students assigned multiple attributes for one or more assessments or subjects will have multiple rows in the file.
Students with no assigned attributes will not appear in the file.
Report Input
Select schools and students (all students is the recommended option).
Select one or more Assessments (all assessments can be selected at once)
The same student selection criteria as used for the Registration File are first applied to identify students qualifying for records according to the assessments selected.
If any EOC subject is selected in Assessments, also select at least one EOC Test Administration.
Additional filtering is then applied to identify students coded for one or more Attributes for each of the selected assessments.
Exclude Students with Missing UID or DOB
While only the UID is required in the Attributes file, students with a missing DOB would have previously been excluded from the Registration file.
This parameter should normally be set to Yes. In this case, if any qualifying students have missing values, they will be listed in a separate Excluded Student companion file included in the.zip file output.
Student Attributes File Output
This CSV file conforms to the layout in the Cambium Student Test Attribute Upload File template, and contains four columns: TSDS ID (UID), Subject, ToolName, and Value.
Students who have at least one populated value for an attribute for the assessments selected at runtime are included.
Multiple records for the same student are output if the student has more than one attribute value selected – either for the same assessment or a different assessment.
