All case studies

A first experiment, step by step

GoogleDeveloper education

A codelab for running an end-to-end Geo experiment, developed for GeoGA University 2018 and for independent learning on the GeoGA website.

The challenge

The codelab had to support a live class and independent study. Both settings called for a clear scope, an appropriate level of detail, and steps that learners could follow to submit an experiment.

What I did

Set the scope and level

I clarified the audience, scope, and technical depth with subject-matter experts.

Developed the tutorial

I expanded the experts’ draft and integrated relevant Plx script samples.

Tested the instructions

I tested the material with GeoGA team members before publishing the final draft.

The outcome

At the 2018 GeoGA University classes, 7 of 8 participants submitted their first GMM experiment after completing the codelab.

A result from a small class at GeoGA University in 2018.
