WE MAP ALL SESSION ACTIVITY DATA TO ITS CONTEXT
WE SUMMARISE SESSION PERFORMANCE FROM THE TUTOR PERSPECTIVE
We capture 100,000 data points per hour of learning, including video, audio, content, activity and duration. We map this to topics, concepts, and content.
We use a range of data points to evaluate tutor performance, guiding further development and improvements.
