Easy, Flexible and Optimized
Team Matching for Experiential Learning Projects

⚡ Smart Match 2 was released late fall 2024 and this update makes it even better. This release includes:

• Algorithm enhancements for further improved team matching.
• A reset button so you can freely try Smart Match then snap it back to undo it.
• You can now navigate away from Smart Match while matchmaking is in progress.
• New TeamBuilder shortcut button for Admin and Instructor+ Users on Home during times when student matchmaking is popular.

EduSourced Smart Match is found in TeamBuilder (Dashboard > TeamBuilder) and below is an example configuration, but you can set your own parameters! Admin Users can add data fields from Settings > Custom Field Editor > Project Bidding to collect info during bidding to be used in Smart Match.

Note: Smart Match simply stages your students onto teams. Admin and Instructor+ users can review, make any desired manual changes, and click Finalize Teams button to lock everything in.

Everything Else

• Fixed issue where the project declined date was not appearing on the declined projects list.

• Fixed issue where clients received duplicate file attachment upload notification in some situations.
