Step 1: Update CPS College Board Portal Access
It is important to properly manage all the data that streams in from the Khan Academy platform. The chart below details the roles that need to be assigned to make sure that this data is handled efficiently and that the proper information is extracted from it and appropriate interventions are then planned.
Additionally, it is important for data privacy reasons to make sure that any staff no longer connected to the school are unable to view student data. Make sure that if a coach departs for any reason that they are no longer able to access this data via the College Board/Khan platform.
