Joshua, I may be misinterpreting what you are saying, so correct me if I
am. I disagree *somewhat* with how you have framed this. While I
certainly agree that educational-authority-as-organization would be good
and useful information to have available, I'd assert that the "authority"
in both cases you note would be CCSSO. The "authority" for the
*content*of a JES&Co. data representation of a CCSSO assertion is not
JES&Co. In
the ASN, this notion of organizational authority is what is call the
"jurisdiction" or "jurisdictional authority" defined as "A legal,
quasi-legal, organizational or institutional domain of the entity mandating
the use of the achievement standard within a given context--e.g.,
California, Singapore, NCTM." CCSSO is the one who has jurisdictional
authority--it is the one who authored the content of the node and exercises
authority over that content. In this regard, I would say that
organizations such as JES&Co., Academic Benchmarks and EdGate are data
intermediaries that neither exercise nor assert "authority" with regard to
the CCSSO-authored content of the data they mediate. I would even go so
far as to assert that CCSSO is the final authority as to whether the
JES&Co. representation is an accurate representation of its creation.
Now, if you want to know who the data mediator is (as opposed to
promulgator :-) that is bringing that node of CCSSO data to you or your
system, that's a different matter. But it is not a matter of "educational
authority"...I would not think.
