| Summary: | Chairing online Master Programmes requires constant monitoring and decision-making, amidst diversified data and ongoing processes. If misunderstood or misinterpreted, poor decisions may result, as well as lost opportunities to support enrolled students. Decision-making can be supported by dashboards, but there are few prototypes which underwent limited evaluation. We focus on identifying and prototyping efficient visualisation and interaction methods for such a dashboard, to offer online Master Program chairs opportunities for better analysis and decision-making. Design science research was conducted: evaluate and revise an existing prototype; evaluate the revised prototype with master program chairs; design, implementation, and evaluation of a final prototype, again involving master program chairs. The final prototype dashboard provides a way for Master Program chairs to visualize and interact with Master Program data, to support improved analysis of information and quick identification of problems, towards better decision-making. |
