Mathematics and learning-systems leader

Grant McCurdy

I build assessment systems, education data workflows, and AI-assisted instructional tools. My work connects mathematics leadership with practical evidence for teaching and learning.

Assessment and measurement, learning analytics, LMS/API automation, and human-reviewed AI.

Assessment & Measurement Learning goals, success metrics, diagnostics, and reviewable evidence
Learning Analytics SQL-backed reporting, statistical analysis, and decision support
AI-Enabled Systems Human review, feedback, assessment, and operational workflows
Leadership & Implementation Mathematics leadership, LMS/API workflows, and cross-team translation

One assessment. A clearer view of the math program.

Explore a common mathematics assessment, its interactive department dashboard, and the report that connects findings to teaching priorities. All three use the same 30-question form; the report and dashboard share a fictional 500-student scenario.

Logos report: score distributions across courses and tracks, showing overlap and variation within each course.

Problems I Solve

From learning evidence to action

I design the connective systems that help people understand what students know, choose the next instructional move, and make organizational decisions from trustworthy evidence.

01

Make learning visible

Define assessment signals and success metrics that distinguish performance, growth, participation, completion, and data quality.

02

Connect evidence to instruction

Turn diagnostic and rubric evidence into reviewable feedback, remediation, and follow-up workflows without removing educator judgment.

03

Build decision-ready infrastructure

Translate LMS-shaped records into validated data models, analytics products, and explanations that different teams can use.

Selected projects

Assessment, analytics, and instructional tools

Working artifacts, the questions they answer, and the methods behind them.

Assessment measurementResearch prototype

Statistical Risk Modeling in R

Problem
Leaders need assessment-growth evidence that supports review priorities without turning model residuals into automated evaluations.
System
A public-safe R workflow searches model families, performs temporal validation and a locked holdout, and produces stakeholder-facing reports.
Evidence
The model card and verified reports expose decision guardrails, validity targets, and teacher, course, and section review signals.
Limitations
Some validity checks remain below target. The model supports review questions, not automated evaluations.
Assessment analyticsInteractive demonstration

Assessment Intelligence

Problem
A math department needs to turn assessment results into priorities for instruction and program review.
System
A common assessment, filterable dashboard, and department report share the same questions, synthetic data, and figures.
Evidence
Explore readiness across courses, Geometry class differences, track comparisons, and question-level teaching priorities.
Limitations
One designed fictional administration. It does not establish growth, causal impact, or placement suitability.
Assessment workflowAuthoring prototype

Assessment-to-Remediation Pipeline

Problem
Assessment authoring needs a controlled path from diagnostic design through review and offline LMS export.
System
The implemented slice validates 36 original math-readiness items, renders reviewer previews, and produces an offline Canvas New Quizzes payload.
Evidence
GPT-5.5 advisory reviews sit behind a human-review boundary before export; scoring, attempts, remediation, reassessment, and mastery reporting remain planned.
Limitations
The demonstrated workflow covers authoring, human review, and offline export. Scoring and remediation remain planned.

Opportunities

Better evidence for teaching and learning.

Through Logos Education Group, I bring assessment and reporting into a practical mathematics program review. This portfolio shows the analytical and technical work behind that practice.

I’m focused on learning engineering, AI learning systems, learning analytics, assessment and measurement systems, education data, and technical EdTech implementation. I also consider selective remote, part-time data and domain-expert AI evaluation work.
