Version 2024.2 – June 22, 2024

New Othot Platform User Experience

Behind the scenes, we are working on an overhaul of the Othot application to improve the user experience. We have completed a comprehensive set of user studies and built out the scaffolding for the new application. Over the next few releases, we’ll continue expanding the new workflows and refining them based on your feedback to ensure they meet your needs and improve your experience using Othot.

The redesign includes improvements to the analyze functionality, featuring a streamlined report framework that allows users to easily navigate through simulations and prescriptions. We’ve also enhanced our insights grid experience, making it simple to segment and view insights for a population of students in your model. Additionally, we’ve revamped our dashboards with a more modern look and feel. Our redesign leverages Liaison’s new component library to ensure continuity with other Liaison products.

Stability Improvements

We’re working on infrastructure improvements to improve platform performance and reduce issue occurrences in the future. This includes upgrading and expanding our automated testing suite and enhancing the backend that supports our application.

Data Science Enhancements

The data science team has implemented a monotonicity constraint feature that makes it possible for our models to incorporate prior knowledge about relationships between a given variable and our prediction. This will make our models more intuitive and easier to explain.
