Educational institutions, whether university, primary school or government department, all share one primary goal: student success. They need to attract and retain students and ensure they graduate to become contributing citizens. To this end, IBM Business Analytics lets educational organizations:
- Plan strategies for academic improvement: Use business intelligence software to analyze student and curriculum performance across tests, classes, cohorts, teachers, schools, campuses and regions to determine what is working and what needs work.
- Identify and pre-empt student difficulties: Run predictive analytics on test results, discipline events, attendance, demographics, teacher experience and other factors to model future performance or drop-out risk. Provide teachers deep insight into individual student needs so they can plan interventions or adjust their teaching to achieve the best results.
- Benchmark teaching best practices: Find out which teachers are having the most success within a topic, demographic or region, for example, and apply their methodologies to teacher development across the board.
With advanced analytics from IBM, educational organizations can drive student success from all angles. Now that’s education for a smarter planet.
