Portfolio of work

Below are some of the projects we have worked on recently. We encourage you to browse our partner's sites to get a clearer understanding of what we do.

Your Olive Branch

yoboSite: http://yobo.org This site was developed by MRW Connected as a pro-bono project. The site includes a dynamic news portal built on WordPress that was heavily customized to connect to a social networking site. The entire site was built by the MRW team and is a continuing flagship project that demonstrates MRW's vast array of services and talents.

Know Your Schools

kysSites: http://knowyourschoolsny.org, http://knowyourschoolsma.org, http://knowyourschoolsnj.orgKnow Your Schools is a project funded by the States of New York (SUNY, Albany), New Jersey(New Jersey Chamber of Commerce), and Massachusetts (Massachusetts Business Alliance for Education). The project is designed to show parents, teachers, and school officials the relative performance of individual schools on State high stakes tests, carefully comparing any given school to all other comparable schools defined as having:
1. nearly as many (viz., 10% less), or more low income students than the given school-based on participation in free or reduced price lunch programs;
2. nearly as many (viz., 10% less), or more English language learners students than the given school; and
3. a school size no more than 40% smaller than that of the given school.
The site shows: the difference in performance of each school on relevant tests in comparison to the best (i.e., the top ten scoring) comparable schools; a scatter plot of performance in comparison to all schools (the best comparable schools, specially marked, and then all others, all standardized by either low income or degree of language barriers; the geographic location of the school and its top comparables; an analysis of relative performance change over time, holding the comparable schools constant over time as one might comparisons in price indices; and an analysis of the relative performance on exams of different students by socio-economic and demographic factors. Over time CES intends to evaluate readiness of secondary students for college and the relative importance of the minimum threshold (namely the "10% less" in points 1 and 2 above) on determining the performance gaps between schools and their best comparables.

The development of this site is collaboration between CES and MRW Connected, LLC.
