Applying Business Analytic Methods To Improve Organizational Performance In The Public School System

This work takes common and innovative business analytics techniques and seeks to apply them in the setting of the school system to improve educational attainment in both primary and secondary schools in the United States. In particular, this paper reviews common factors identified in the literature as influencing a student’s success in secondary school, discusses how those factors could be digitized and collected through information systems, and theorizes how big data and analytics could be further applied to these organization to manage their performance. We then look at the uses of analytics in schools to see how well they match and identify areas for improvement. This work shows that there has been an effort to digitize some of the prediction factors; however, a number of the more readily influenced factors have yet to be digitized and used to make evidence based decisions to improve student outcomes in the school system.
