The goal of the Ontario Board Tools obt package is to provide tools for data professionals in Ontario school boards (and elsewhere) to work with common data sets across the province. This includes:
- Report Card Data (elementary and secondary)
- EQAO Data (Primary and Junior assessments of Reading, Writing and Mathematics, Grade 9 Assessments of Mathematics and the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test) (pending)
- Ontario University Application Center (OUAC) and Ontario College Application Service (OCAS) data (pending)
Features of this package include re-coding report card marks to
- Ontario achievement levels
- At/Above Standard (e.e Level 3 or Level 4)
- Pass/Fail
- Alpha marks to numeric equivalent (i.e. A = 90, B- = 72, D = 55)
