CoSN2020: How Data Analytics Can Improve Remote Learning
When school districts unexpectedly closed due to the coronavirus pandemic, faculty and staff had to embrace the unknown and come up with creative ways to continue student learning. But with such a quick pivot, many felt that they didn't have all the information they needed to see how well it was all working — especially those who didn't have any sort of prior contingency plan.
At CoSN2020, Amy Bennett, vice president of marketing at Lightspeed Systems, said that it's possible for schools to access that information with the help of data analytics. She discussed how Lightspeed's Relay dashboard solution gives IT leaders and administrators visibility into application usage, device management, data privacy and more to ensure their remote or blended learning initiatives are successful.
