EngageNY Portal

Components of the ENYP

An instructional information system that will:

• Allow authorized educators, students (grades 6 through 12), and their legal guardians (all grade levels) to log in and view student educational data through data dashboards

• Provide users with access to instructional and learning resources tagged to CCSS through the EngageNY content management system, and

• Enable educators to create secure online professional learning communities to share resources and collaborate with colleagues across the State, region, district, or school.

Building a sustainable, flexible, and secure ecosystem of applications

EngageNY Portal

Objective Challenge Addressing the Challenge

Sustainability Many instructional information system deployments are monolithic, “one-size-fits-all” applications

Provide a path for districts to quickly develop, license, and deploy new applications at a low cost

Flexibility The cost of switching application providers is high (i.e. “vendor lock-in”)

Direct providers to use open, non-proprietary standards for data integration in order to reduce costs and expand choices

Security Data security and privacy protocols are not standardized across schools and districts

Develop and implement rigorous and standardizes protocols

Building a sustainable, flexible, and secure ecosystem of applications

EngageNY Portal

Many states recognized these challenges, leading to inBloom:

• founded with support from the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) to enable participating states and districts to increase their educational technology options, lower costs, and protect data security and privacy.

• supports the EngageNY Portal’s objectives of sustainability, flexibility, and security.

• nonproprietary and open source.
