Student Academic Record - UDM v2.1b

The Student Academic Record domain models the various kinds of student performance reporting.

A student transcript contains information about course-level grades and credits. A student transcript consists of a StudentAcademicRecord which has a CourseTranscript for each course taken.
CourseTranscript contains an optional reference to an external EducationOrganization to allow for the representations of situations in which partial information is known about past academic work transferred from an external organization.
Report cards contain information for grading period grades and competencies. A report card consists of a ReportCard entity for each GradingPeriod. A Grade is associated with each Section entity.
Gradebook contains grades and competencies for classroom quizzes, tests, homework, and projects. An assignment in a Gradebook is represented as a GradebookEntry. Each student's score for that entry is a StudentGradebookEntry which can be a grade or a CompetencyLevelDescriptor.

Report Card

A Student has a ReportCard for each GradingPeriod. A Grade is associated with each Section. For early grade levels, a StudentCompetencyObjective is assigned to CompetencyObjectives and a StudentLearningObjective is assigned to LearningObjectives, for example, assigning a "Satisfactory" for "Participates in class discussions." The StudentLearningObjective is either associated to a Section or a Program.
