TSDL/CVR

TSDL goes to DRC (Data Recognition Corporation). The TSDL Teacher Student Data Link /CVR Curriculum Verification & Roster Portal /EOC End of Course program serves two purposes:

• To create student rosters for test booklets and TSDL/CVR files for the state Teacher Student Data Link system.
• To create EOC files for the state EOC testing system (www.louisianaeoc.org).

The primary difference between the two is:

• When Show only courses with final weight is not selected, the system assumes a TSDL file is being created, and all selected courses are included in the TSDL file.
• When Show only courses with final weight is selected, the system assumes that an EOC file is being created. Only EOC courses, that have a final weight in the course catalog, are included in the file that will be submitted.

NOTE: THIS IS NO LONGER THE EAGLE UPLOAD AS OF 2015. Go to DRC E-Direct Export
