Understanding patterns of success among postsecondary CTE students: A diagnostic for institutional and system analysts

This repository contains web guides, Stata code, and sample data to help education data analysts answer questions about student success in CTE pathways. This material can also be accessed on the OpenSDP website at opensdp.github.io/analysis.

The code in this repository is based on code from the "Analyze" section of the Strategic Data Project Toolkit for Effective Data Use.

This repository is organized in the following folder structure:

  • code contains the Stata code of the analysis
    • cte_toolkit_narrative.do contains all Stata code for the toolkit
    • section1.do - section4.do is the State code broken out by toolkit section
  • data contains data necessary to complete the analysis
  • docs contains CTE Toolkit web guides and images
    • Do files with a _webdoc suffix generate both charts and web guides using the Stata webdoc package
    • Do files without the _webdoc suffix are automatically generated versions of the do files stripped of webdoc commands and markdown content
  • Run run_webdoc.do to run through the individual do files, generate the guides, and generate stripped versions of the chart code.

These materials were originally authored by Chris Avery, Jon Fullerton, Brian Johnson, Adrienne Murphy, Alyssa Reinhart, and Elise Swanson.

OpenSDP is an online, public repository of analytic code, tools, and training intended to foster collaboration among education analysts and researchers in order to accelerate the improvement of our school systems. The community is hosted by the Strategic Data Project, an initiative of the Center for Education Policy Research at Harvard University. We welcome contributions and feedback.
