The Challenge: Overcoming Hurdles in Skill Assessment
Geekster encountered two key challenges:
Challenge #1: Simulating Real-World Projects
Geekster students lacked coding assignments that effectively simulated project-level technical tasks.
Existing skill assessments were not aligned with students' learning objectives and often failed to evaluate their real-world technical abilities. Additionally, some assignments overlapped in certain areas, leading to unclear skill evaluation.
Challenge #2: Lack of Performance Data
Geekster faced a shortage of accurate data and insights on student performance. The absence of a system to capture precise performance data limited their ability to analyze and drive student progress effectively.
