Helping districts a little closer to home


BERING STRAIT SCHOOL DISTRICT, UNALAKLEET, AK

2011 Boleslaw Kurowski (Heinz-MISM) Cristina Sonia Melo (Heinz-MSPPM)

  • Helped the Bering Strait School District plan the evolution of their custom-built student information system to a community-supported open-source project. After interviewing many stakeholders, they made major improvements to the system’s user-interface and functionality.

  • Packaged the student information system in a way that potential collaborators could download and evaluate the system. This is a critical step toward attracting a community of users and developers interested in sustaining the system as an open-source project.
