How do I do I pass the model to this st

Answer 1

You should extend your model so that it can provide all necessary fields for the view (this is called ViewModel) or you provide them seperately with ViewData.

 public ActionResult Test()
        {
              MyData = new Data();
              MyData.One = 1;
              ViewData["someData"]=MyData;
              return View();
        }

then:

<% Html.RenderPartial("PartialView",ViewData["someData"]); %>

ViewData is a nice losely typed dictionary
