Software Tools for Comprehensive Needs Assessments
Basis’ work with the Nebraska Department of Education successfully turned complex data and inputs into an interactive, usable software solution.
Putting Powerful School Improvement Tools to Work
Nebraska districts were concerned with the paper-heavy, time-consuming, and hard-to-track nature of their Continuous Needs Assessment. Turning the CNA into an easy-to-use online tool makes it simpler for school leaders to identify strengths, prioritize areas for improvement, and monitor school progress over time, creating a real-time system for measuring school success.
Understanding Impact
With partners at Hourglass Technology Solutions, Basis was able to turn their methodology into a Software as a Solution (SAAS) that
- scored a school's status and performance.
- track team progress in completing the assessment over the course of the academic year.
- monitored a school's scoring and performance over time.
