PESTEL Analysis: EffectCheck: a ten-minute A/B test for teaching methods
A lightweight web tool that turns a teacher's next unit into a mini-experiment — built-in 15-item pre/post quizzes, automatic t-test and Cohen's d — and returns a one-page 'did this work in my class?' report.
The PESTEL analysis reveals a strong alignment with current educational trends toward evidence-based practice and data-driven professional development.
