Session Type: Project Rounds: Learning Analytics, Course Design, and Student Success
The Student Success Plan (SSP) supports and enables processes and interventions designed to increase the persistence, success, and graduation rates of targeted students. Through holistic counseling, web-based support systems, and intervention techniques, students who are at risk of failing in college are identified, supported, and monitored. SSP includes case management tools, a journal of contact with students, early alerts, an individual action plan, and student self-help tools. SSP has a documented record of success in improving student outcomes; it received 11 national awards and been adopted by five other colleges. You'll learn how SSP has impacted our student success, retention, and completion rates; how we collect and measure data; what we have planned for the future of SSP as open-source software; how the zero-cost license works; and how we plan to make the tool sustainable. You'll also learn how and why others have undertaken SSP implementation projects and get a rough estimate of resource needs.
