Student data files are used to import all student details for an individual cohort. This includes information such as student IDs, student names, classes, and additional filter values such as Gender, Ethnicity, etc. as defined in the Student Data Profile (in CONFIG. > Student Data).
| For further information on adding or removing custom filters, see the following article: Student Data Profile - Creating & Managing Filters. |
This information can be extracted from your MIS, ran through the Sisra Analytics Excel Add-In, and then imported into Analytics. Once imported, this will link to the grades files for the cohort and populate the student’s details in the reports.
Analytics will use the student ID within student and grades files to link the appropriate students with the correct grades/baselines. As such, you must be consistent with the student ID used within all files for a cohort.

Q: What should I use as the Student ID? A: Some examples include the student’s exam number, admission number, or UPN as an ID. Whichever you choose, you must stick to this throughout all uploads for that cohort. |
