| Improving education through instructional technology
|
Palatine, Illinois-based Community Consolidated School District 15 is the second largest K-8 district in the state—with approximately 13,000 students, 15 elementary schools, four junior high schools and approximately 2,000 full-time employees.
The district needed its data warehouse to capture an extensive amount of data—from state standardized tests, reading intervention programs, writing portfolios and more—so that it could plot student performance and continuous, year-to-year improvements. In response, IBM provided the district with its best-of-breed, desktop tool-independent, K-12 data warehouse solution: IBM Insight at School.
Throughout the project, IBM provided a team that included a project manager,
an Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) lead, and an end-user reporting-tool expert, who consulted with district principals, counselors, administrators and testing personnel about how they wanted data presented. To augment the core team, IBM brought in specialists on an as-needed basis, including subject matter experts in education, a data modeler and a database administrator.
