New framework aids instructors in generating synthetic data for business analytics education

A new framework called DataCanvas-EDU has been developed to assist instructors in generating synthetic datasets for business analytics education. This agentic system allows educators to guide the AI through conversational prompts to create specific data patterns, write generation code, and prepare assignments, analyses, and rubrics. The goal is to streamline case preparation and provide students with novel data patterns to explore using AI tools, as demonstrated with the WindowDash food delivery case. AI

IMPACT This framework could streamline educational content creation and offer novel learning experiences for students in business analytics.
