The Enlighten Dashboard:

My master’s capstone project, sponsored by Renaissance Learning, Inc, involved investigating K-12 school administrators’ need for comparing students’ performance with demographically similar schools.

The result of a 7-month research, design, development and testing cycle, the Enlighten Dashboard allows administrators to compare, analyze, and connect to schools most similar to their own. Usability testing shows our system achieved a System Usability Scale(SUS) score of 82.5 indicating high usability, and translates to an A on an A-F scale.

My main tasks in the capstone concern mining large datasets in RL’s educational database, conducting UX research including semi-structured interview and co-design sessions, and help with the dashboard development process.

I invite you to try out the [Enlighten dashboard] which allows school administrators to compare students’ performance with demographically similar schools, and connect to people in these like-context schools.
