Abstract
Abstract

We present CoursePathVis, a visual analytics tool for exploring and analyzing students’ progress through a college curriculum using a Sankey diagram. Focusing on four student cohorts in a department, we group students in multiple ways (by their AP courses, term courses, and a user-specified funnel course) to comprehensively understand the data. CoursePathVis helps us identify patterns or outliers that affect student success with these flexible grouping techniques and the funnel-augmented Sankey diagram. Three stakeholders from the same department formulate design requirements and provide an ad-hoc evaluation.
