Renaissance believes in the transformative power of AI to support teaching and learning. We are excited to introduce a new AI-powered feature in Renaissance Next for Leaders, Explain It, to make data interpretation seamless and actionable. The Explain It button is available on the Star Student Growth Percentile (SGP) tiles, on both district and school profile pages:
The Explain It button is designed to save leaders time by simplifying the way insights and focus areas are surfaced. When clicked, it opens a pop-up window that provides a natural language explanation of the SGP metrics in 3–5 bullet points, including 1–2 focus areas. This feature transforms intricate data into clear, concise insights:
Why this new feature matters
SGP is a valuable metric for understanding student growth, but its complexity can make it challenging to interpret. The Explain It feature transforms SGP results into clear, actionable insights for leaders. Combining AI with educational expertise benefits school and district administrators in several ways:
1. Saves time
Leaders often lack the time to conduct deep data analysis. The Explain It feature surfaces key insights so you can quickly grasp the significance of your SGP data and make informed decisions without the need for manual data analysis.
2. Enhances understanding
Growth measurement, especially with metrics like SGP, can be less familiar and harder to interpret than more traditional assessment scores. The Explain It feature helps you understand these metrics with confidence. By breaking down the data into easily digestible bullet points, this new feature ensures that you can communicate these insights effectively to your team and stakeholders.
3. Supports data-driven decision making
With clear, concise explanations at your fingertips, you can take action swiftly. Whether it’s adjusting instructional strategies or making policy decisions, the Explain It feature empowers you to respond to data insights promptly and effectively.
In today’s education technology landscape, AI integration is not just a luxury—it’s a necessity. The Explain It feature leverages AI to provide natural language explanations, reinforcing Renaissance’s commitment to delivering best-in-class solutions and empowering you to See Every Student.
