Does your data need validating? Are you a Midwesterner?

Posted Sometime in

If you answered yes to both questions, then come see me present at the PSUG-MW Conference in Michigan City, IN. I'll be laying it out in two sessions:
Setting up and using built-in data validation - Beginner
and
Roll your own data validation using javascript - Advanced

It took me 15 minutes...

Got sick of waiting around for the Illinois state reporting people to put in a dropdown for the new immigrant country codes in PowerSchool. So I made my own. Did not take long. If you would like a copy you can get it here:
http://nicktech.org/sites/default/files/il_country_codes.zip

Just upload it to /admin/students and use the following tag to add it to the student page of your choosing:
~[x:insertfile;il_country_codes.html]

If anyone is going to the ICE Conference later this month, I will once again be there with my red shirt on!

Look what St. Nick left in your shoe

Made a student page in Powerschool to record the PARCC pre-id stuff (mostly accommodations).
My district did not want to wait for Pearson's state reporting folks to get their collective butts in gear.
So if your in Illinois and familiar with Database Extensions you can download the page here:

A gift from my district to yours. Happy Holidays!
