This thesis presents the research on developing a suitable dashboard for Project ENHANCE following the design guidelines from Few and Eckerson, and the recommendations that follow from this process for dashboard design in a non-business context. Two mock-up dashboards were developed in Python, using the Dash library. this case study shows that the guidelines from Few and Eckerson for designing different dashboard types could only be partly applied to the non-business context of Project ENHANCE. This is due to the fact that Project ENHANCE largely aims for a different purpose of their dashboard than recognized by Few and Eckerson, as was discovered during the user requirements interviews. Furthermore, Few and Eckerson make no distinction between dashboards for internal audiences or external audiences, whereas comments in the evaluation survey demonstrated that this distinction can greatly influence dashboard design.A new type of dashboard is proposed based on the conducted research: the Communication & Learning dashboard.
