Ideas with the Most Comments
A crowd-based platform works best when users are active and engaged with the ideas that have been submitted. One of the best ways to measure hot ideas is to look at the number of comments generated around an idea. Whether it's an inspiring idea or a pain point for employees, comments can reveal additional information about how users feel about the underlying problem.
Congratulations!
for getting participants engaged through commenting!

Top Voted Opportunities (Strategic Planning)
Minnetonka's redesigned event (r
ead the Cohort Member Highlight below!
) allowed participants to vote on "How might we...?" questions, essentially giving them the chance to vote on the problems or opportunities that they feel should be top priority. In our end of year reporting, we discovered that these received higher up-vote percentages than any ideas, indicating the greatest consensus among our cohort came from voting on what problems or opportunities should be addressed.
Congratulations!
, Minnetonka Public Schools, for always rethinking and redesigning how we innovate in education!

Highest Voting Engagement
Ultimately, it is the voting between two ideas that helps districts/schools identify top ideas and opportunities within their district/school. With a huge number of possible voting combinations, participants often wonder, "When will I know I am done?"
Congratulations!

Highest Participant Engagement
Once a user is registered on the event platform, the goal is to get them engaged and participating throughout the event. Event engagement is calculated by taking the number of active users (users who are submitting ideas, commenting or voting) and dividing by the number of registered users.
Congratulations! to the districts who got their staff engaged in the process, encouraging them to submit an idea, comment and vote!
