Editor's Notes
- SLE data comes to us in a spreadsheet from smart evals We need a way to make use of this data by presenting only the data to those who are permitted to view it in a meaningful way. We want to make the data that we collect from students to be as useful as possible to the future of the labor program.
- A previous attempt at displaying this data involved a Microsoft Word template and an online portal for administrators to upload the SLE data. Once it receives the data, the program would parse and calculate values for variables to plug into the Word template. Then, the labor dapartment would manually email or print these word documents to their appropriate audience. This approach has a few major problems. For one its tedious and wasteful. But the biggest proble was that it is not adaptable. Fields in the SLE data that we recieve from SmartEvals are likely to change and this existing approch does not adapt to any changes. For example we are set to start collecting demographic data from SLEs and the existing approch breaks and fails to return anything when colums in the spreadsheet are altered or new columns are added.
- Instead of trying to fix a broken system we have opted to start work on a new online web dashboard to display spreadsheet data. This approach is Accessible to anyone who has access to the data. It is adaptable and completely configurable by an admin It is sustainable and streamlined And it also scales to any number of users
- Lets see how this new system might work by using a few examples. We start from the point of view of the admin. Lets image that this is David Slinker.
- David gets a spreadsheet with all the SLE data. He logs into the Application using Berea College’s new Shibbolleth authentication system and he is prompted to upload a data set. He uploads the spreadsheet file form his computer and gives this data set a name.
- After uploading a data set, David has full control over how the data is represented. Within th app he can rename columns and remap values for easier human readable format.
