AI Maddy - Teacher's Personal Assistant
Case Study Summary
Client: Wijschool Foundation
Website: wijschool.nl
Industry: Education
Impact Metrics:
- 12 hours reclaimed weekly per teacher (600+ hours annually) for quality student interaction
- Stress reduction from administrative overload to teaching passion
- 80% accuracy in automating previously manual administrative tasks
- Student personalization replacing standardized approaches
- Compliance confidence eliminating regulatory anxiety
Wijschool Foundation sought to revolutionize how teachers manage their daily responsibilities through AI integration, aiming to reduce administrative overhead and enhance personalized learning experiences.
The Challenge
Wijschool Foundation faced a common AI implementation roadblock:
- Previous AI attempts failed to integrate with existing school systems
- Teachers couldn't access their own data through AI tools
- No clear ROI metrics to justify technology investment
- Regulatory compliance creating implementation paralysis
My Approach
Rather than jumping straight to implementation, I first:
- Assessed data quality and integration touchpoints across school systems
- Established concrete success metrics with teachers and administrators
- Created evaluation frameworks to validate AI performance
- Developed integration architecture that preserved existing workflows
This evaluation phase revealed critical requirements missed by previous attempts and created clear implementation roadmap.
Production-Ready Implementation
With evaluation insights guiding development, I:
- Connected AI Maddy directly to school knowledge bases and data
- Implemented robust automated monitoring & evaluation system
- Created seamless integration with existing teacher workflows
- Built compliance frameworks into the core architecture
Key Success Factors
- Connected to existing systems instead of replacing them
- Established ROI measurements before implementation
- Built for real-world conditions, not demo scenarios
- Enhanced teacher workflows instead of introducing new ones
