This project centers on Croi, an innovative educational technology platform designed to assist high school students with college decision-making and financial literacy. The primary objective was to evaluate and enhance Croi's effectiveness through direct user engagement in early adopter high schools. Utilizing a blend of surveys, focus groups, and practical application, the project gathered valuable feedback from both students and counselors. This feedback was crucial in identifying areas for improvement, particularly in the usability and feature set of Croi's College Decision Tool, Student Loan Tool, and croiLearn modules. The project's outcome offers significant insights into optimizing ed-tech tools for educational environments, ensuring they are both user-friendly and educationally impactful.
