One of the educator selecting a analytic representation in the co-design session
This project embedded novice educators in the design process of a learning analytics dashboard. The participatory co-design methodology helped educators unfamiliar with data and computational methods to meaningfully incorporate data analytics and visualizations into their brainstorming. The study involved co-designing a data-driven dashboard for an immersive educational simulation, Connected Worlds.
