| Item Title: | Approval of Purchase of Videri Data Analysis and Visualization Platform (Rowse) |
| Agenda Title: | Approval of Purchase of Videri Data Analysis and Visualization Platform (Rowse) |
| Background: | We have identified the need to have a platform to help our staff analyze and visualize data to drive improvements in student learning. We have evaluated several platforms to solve these challenges.
We convened an advisory group of District leaders and site principals to review three platforms, and they recommended the selection of Videri as the best fit for our District. Based on our evaluation, Videri will provide intuitive and self-service data analysis and visualization capabilities to our District and site leaders. Videri is compatible with Aeries, which will be the primary source of data that feeds into the platform for analysis.
Once approved, we will:
- Integrate the data analytics platform with our local systems in the coming months
- Provide training to District and site leaders
- Validate the dashboards against internal reports
- Implement the platform with District and site leaders
- Use the platform to drive improvements in student learning
