Actionable data holds the key to unlocking valuable insights that empower users to make informed decisions. But it’s challenging to decipher which data will inspire your users down a guided path versus which will only confuse them.

Gone are the days of pandemic-era funding, when buyers at educational institutions were quick to adopt new EdTech. For the last few years, institutions had the financial bandwidth to try any and all EdTech that facilitated remote learning or in-classroom work. Now that in-person education is back, there’s less incentive to try new tools — and frankly, even less money to do so. Fewer buyers can draw from the well of stimulus money anymore. So what does that mean for your EdTech? It means there’s a higher burden of proof on your product’s value. That’s where data visualization comes in.

But knowing where you’re more likely to make missteps can reduce your chances of making a costly one. By understanding and avoiding these pitfalls, you can ensure your UX research programs are effective and contribute to the overall success of your EdTech products. From focusing solely on user testing to failing to properly validate experiences through product development, these are the five mistakes to watch out for.
