Securly Discern, developed with TPLEX’s expertise, is a one-of-a-kind AI tool that generates data and insights aligned with frequently used frameworks for school climate, student interests, multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS), social emotional learning (SEL), and more. In order to monitor progress toward strategic targets and improvement plans, K–12 institutions find it difficult to efficiently obtain and analyse large amounts of data. Discern bridges this gap by offering practical insights and improved procedures to improve student outcomes and school efficiency.
K-12 school districts encounter numerous obstacles when attempting to analyse data for strategic planning and improvement. One primary challenge is data storage. Data is often stored across multiple applications and formats, making it difficult to access and analyse effectively. This fragmented data landscape hinders schools’ ability to generate timely, actionable insights into student wellness, safety, academics, and behaviour.
Additionally, traditional methods of surveying and screening are manual, time-consuming, and often yield unpredictable results. Resource constraints, including budget cuts and staff shortages, further limit the capacity for extensive data analysis and intervention. These challenges necessitate an innovative approach to data management and analysis, which Discern is uniquely positioned to provide.
Our team at TPLEX addressed Discern’s challenges by leveraging AI to automate data collection and analysis, providing K-12 school districts with reliable, near-immediate insights. One significant improvement was implementing always-on data collection, replacing traditional manual surveying methods. This continuous data collection ensures schools have up-to-date information at all times, enabling accurate and timely decision-making. By eliminating delays and inconsistencies, schools can respond swiftly to emerging trends and issues, enhancing their ability to support student well-being effectively.
TPLEX introduced comprehensive analysis capabilities to Discern, generating insights aligned with educational frameworks for school climate, student interests, MTSS, SEL, and more. This allows educators to understand and address various aspects of student performance and well-being. Personalised action plans were developed, providing student-level insights to customise interventions based on individual needs. To support broader strategic planning, aggregate reporting was implemented, enabling the use of comprehensive data sets for school improvement strategies. This approach empowers schools to track progress accurately, identify areas for enhancement, and implement effective strategies for overall improvement.
To address ethical considerations and reduce bias in AI, Securly Discern employs a three-pronged approach: educating stakeholders on framework differences, ensuring transparency in data processes, and benchmarking to normalise data sets. This ensures data analysis is fair, transparent, and aligned with educational goals, fostering trust in the insights generated by Discern.
Additionally, implementing Continuous Monitoring and Feedback allows regular evaluation and improvement of AI performance, addressing biases promptly. These strategies ensure Discern’s AI-driven insights are ethical and reliable, building trust among educators and contributing to better educational outcomes.
Our team transforms the approach to data management and analysis, that leads to significant improvements in efficiency, actionable insights, student support, and strategic planning. :
Discern’s serverless architecture reduced infrastructure costs and operational overhead, resulting in long-term savings. The scalable microservices architecture efficiently supports a growing user base, managing increased traffic and data processing without performance issues. This enables schools to focus resources on improving educational outcomes rather than managing complex data systems.
Discern’s comprehensive analysis generates insights aligned with educational frameworks, enabling quick responses to emerging trends and issues. By providing early insights into student safety and wellness, Discern facilitates proactive intervention with personalised action plans, creating a safer, more supportive learning environment for all students.
With the success of the initial project, TPLEX has become a trusted partner for Discern, continuing to support and enhance the platform’s capabilities. This ongoing collaboration ensures that Discern remains at the forefront of educational technology, leveraging TPLEX’s expertise to introduce new features, improve scalability, and maintain high performance. Together, TPLEX and Discern are committed to driving innovation and delivering exceptional value to K-12 institutions, ensuring that educators have the tools they need to support student success and well-being effectively.
