Hi Anu – this is such a great idea and love the name. As a parent of two young boys I know i am constantly thinking about what do I need to do in order to get my boys ready for their next academic phase, what next? Nextstep is certainly a tool that parents can leverage as they go through the journey.
From a platform perspective, right from the start you are proposing a customized development plan for the student; what is the source of the data to perform this assessment and also the input into the platform from student/parents/counsellors how is that being captured?
Very interesting idea on use of data analytics, every child is unique and trying to capture the strengths and weaknesses in order to propose a customized solution is quite a task!
Wishing you and Vanessa the very best!
