Disrupting the Divide: The Role of Technology in Mitigating the Impact of Data Fragmentation on Students
Korman, Hailly T. N.; Trinidad, Justin
Bellwether Education Partners
In February 2017, Bellwether Education Partners gathered several experts in a working session to identify the biggest challenges for youth experiencing education disruption and to design a new vision for how technology can help young people overcome those challenges or avoid them entirely. The report walks through a journey map of the current state of the student and adult experience during a moment of education disruption. It then describes a single design for an online data-sharing platform that captures the working group's aspirations while remaining grounded in the tangible and practical. Finally, it discusses important considerations for any leader who is considering implementing this kind of technology solution. This publication centers on three personas--archetypes based on interviews and research that serve as stand-ins to better understand the experience of real people: the student, the student's advocate, and the jurisdictions between which the student is transitioning. The journey map illustrates how these three entities currently engage with one another, including the challenges students and advocates face in navigating complex bureaucracies.
