## INTRODUCTION Attachment A - 4 contains guiding questions, or directional indicators (DI), used to reduce burden on LEAs. Itis organized as follows :  Overview of directional indicators  List of directional indicators Directional indicators are used to determine whether a data group is applicable to an LEA. For example, an LEA will be presented with a simple question asking whether or not students are enrolled in Advanced Placement (AP) courses at the school . If the LEA answers “no , ” then the subsequent tables collecting student counts of AP enrollment, exam - taking, and AP exam passing are not presented to the LEA. Changes made as a result of comments received during the 60 - day public comment period are noted with a “ **†** ”. Additional chang es (including technical edits and revisions) that were made for clarity, accuracy, and consistency are noted with a “ **‡** ”. 

## OVERVIEW OF DIRECTIO **NAL INDICATOR**  **S** Because the CRDC is a mandatory collection, LEAs are obligated to respond to each applicable survey question. First implemented with the 2009 - 10 CRDC, directional indicators successfully reduce the burden b y eliminating tables that are not applicable, ther efore reducing the amount of time LEAs spend entering zeros into non - applicable tables. As OCR continuously improves the design of the web - based survey tool, the 2011 - 12 CRDC included additional directional indicator s to determine whether the LEA will be presented with subsequent data group tables. Many of these directional indicator s are linked to existing data groups. For example, in DG932 , OCR collects each grade offered at a school. D ata are used to determine which applicable grade level retention tables are presented to the LEA (e.g . , a school offering grades 10, 11, and 12 would be present ed only with the retention tables for grades 10, 11, and 12) . However, there are some data groups which apply onl y to a subset of schools and this subset of sc hools cannot be determined from already collected information. For example, in the 2009 - 10 CRDC sample, approximately 55 % of high schools offer ed Advanced P lacement courses. In order to limit the burden of responding to data elements collecting detailed Advanced Placement data, OCR designed a directional indicator to determine which high schools (offering any grade 9 - 12) also offered Advanced Placement courses. These directional indicators minimize the burden of responding to the CRDC for LEAs and school s. The following list of directional indicators may be expanded as OCR designs the 201 3 - 1 4 survey tool. All directional indicators are designed to minimize the burden of the CRDC collection to the extent possible on participating school districts.Attachment A - 4 CRDC Data Set for School Years 2013

aged 16 to 19, for success at university and life beyond. The Programme is ty picall y taught over two years. IB Diploma Programme students study six courses at higher level or standard level. Students must choose one subject from each of groups 1 to 5, thus ensuring breadth of experience in languages, social studies, the experimental sciences and mathematics. The sixth subject may

be an arts subject chosen from group 6, or the student may choose another subject from groups 1 to 5.
