  3. Where we are… …transitioning between old, sporadic data collection techniques… …to one central, complete database. We are expanding our database efforts to include information provided by the Connecticut State Department of Education; including teacher’s BEST scores and K-12 pupil data.

  4. The New TNE-Neag Database Single Oracle server holds information for individuals automatically through multiple user-friendly interfaces accessed through the World Wide Web.

  5. What information is stored in the TNE-Neag Database? How accurate is the data? Ultimate Goal: To have all Neag School of Education data stored in one central location on the Oracle server. • Student admission information • Clinic placement records • Testing records • E-portfolios • Post-graduate employment and address • Internship/Inquiry project • Survey data • TNE and Neag have implemented advanced software to ensure: • Unique Identifier assigned by University PeopleSoft System • Data is verified upon entry • Cross-checking data is constant • Human error is kept at a minimum

  6. With so much information, how is the database designed? The TNE-Neag database is broken down into several manageable modules. Each module is built piece by piece, data can be entered from multiple locations. Information can then be extracted about individuals to produce clean, streamline, accurate reports. Each new item of information is linked to an individual identified by a unique number, assigned by the University PeopleSoft system.
