# Learners (ERD)

The UCDM includes a number of entities to represent Learners. These entities are typically administrative in nature and designed to enable high-level aggregation and institution-wide reporting of learning outcomes, activities, and other data.

## Entities <a href="#learners-erd-entities" id="learners-erd-entities"></a>

The Learner entities in the Unizin Common Data Model are as follows:

<table data-full-width="true"><thead><tr><th width="209.33333333333337">Entity</th><th width="405">Definition</th><th>Data dictionary documentation</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Person</td><td>An individual participating, in any capacity, in the design, delivery, or evaluation of teaching and learning processes and environments.</td><td><a href="https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person">https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person</a></td></tr><tr><td>Admission test score</td><td>An individual Person's score on an admissions test, whether standardized or institutionally-specific.</td><td><a href="https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#admission_test_score">https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#admission_test_score</a></td></tr><tr><td>Person-Academic degree</td><td>An Academic degree that was earned by a Person at the institution.</td><td><a href="https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person__academic_degree">https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person__academic_degree</a></td></tr><tr><td>Person-Academic term</td><td>The relationships between a Person and a Term for any given term.</td><td><a href="https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person__academic_term">https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person__academic_term</a></td></tr><tr><td>Person-Academic major-Academic term</td><td>Denotes the Person was pursuing the Academic major during the Academic term.</td><td><a href="https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person__academic_major__academic_term">https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person__academic_major__academic_term</a></td></tr><tr><td>Person-Academic major specialization-Academic term</td><td>Denotes the Person was pursuing the Academic major specialization during the Academic term.</td><td><a href="https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person__academic_major_specialization__academic_term">https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person__academic_major_specialization__academic_term</a></td></tr><tr><td>Person-Academic minor-Academic term</td><td>Denotes the Person was pursuing the Academic minor during the Academic term.</td><td><a href="https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person__academic_minor__academic_term">https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person__academic_minor__academic_term</a></td></tr><tr><td>Person-Phone number</td><td>The email addresses associated with a Person.</td><td><a href="https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person_phone_number">https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person_phone_number</a></td></tr><tr><td>Person-Email</td><td>The phone numbers associated with a Person.</td><td><a href="https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person_email">https://docs.udp.unizin.org/ucdm/data-dictionary-2.0.html#person_email</a></td></tr></tbody></table>

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://resources.unizin.org/products/data-and-analytics/unizin-data-platform/unizin-common-data-model/learners-erd.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
