In the swiftly evolving digital landscape of today, educational technology (edtech) isn’t merely a trendy term; it represents a significant transformation that is influencing countless students and educators. Tailwind Business Ventures takes pride in being an integral part of this revolution, as we diligently provide top-notch, scalable solutions to educational institutions. In this narrative, we are delighted to recount our collaboration with Pearson, which serves as a compelling illustration of how technological intervention can enhance the extent and efficacy of education.
Pearson’s Challenge
With more than 80 years of experience in the assessment field, Pearson’s Clinical Assessment group offers innovative and comprehensive products and services. They merge innovation with quality test design to develop increasingly more effective tools for children and adults, educators and clinicians.
We partnered to develop a new version for aimsweb Plus, a K-12 universal screening, progress monitoring, data management and reporting system. aimsweb allows educators to screen students, identify those at risk of academic failure, enable early intervention, and monitor the effects of instructional changes.
Tailwind’s Solution — Comprehensive, All-in-One Solutions
To tackle Pearson’s challenges, our Tailwind team harnessed a robust technological foundation, working with Java 8; Spring-Book 2.0.4; Netflix Zuul; AWS SQS and S2; Swagger 2; Quartz Scheduler; Jersey SSE; and Redis, among many other technologies,, complemented by some MySQL. Our approach revolved around empowering Pearson to effectively manage its expanding user base, with a strong emphasis on scalability and seamless service integration.
