Students want value this semester, not a degree payoff three years out

Students want value this semester, not a degree payoff three years out

Higher ed has long measured success by completion, but ASU’s research into noncompleters found many questioning whether college is worth the time and money right now. ASU’s Work Plus initiative redesigns on-campus jobs around skill development, while ASU also pursues work-integrated learning across degrees to reduce reliance on external internships that can exclude students without time or means.

  • 01Shift from time-to-completion to time-to-value: ASU found noncompleters want value they can feel now, not only at graduation
  • 02The Work Plus Collective includes 37 partner institutions and uses user-centered design, spending time with supervisors, student employees, and administrators before proposing changes to student employment.
  • 03Institutions must fix systems-level hiring barriers and curriculum approval bottlenecks before redesigning programs; institutionalizing changes takes multiple years per campus

Impact Public Schools wants software to sort students into intervention tiers

Impact Public Schools wants software to sort students into intervention tiers

Impact Public Schools, a Washington charter network, wants a custom tool that sorts students into Tier 1-3 groups from benchmark data and recommends interventions for students in Tiers 2 and 3. Proposals are due Oct. 9. Missouri's North Kansas City Schools wants a dashboard that consolidates data from its student information system and its assessment, attendance and behavior systems. Side by side, the requests suggest one buyer wants to see its data and the other wants to act on it.

  • 01A decade after the national ed-tech plan made dashboards a priority, a 1,751-student charter network is asking software to do the student grouping itself and recommend Tier 2 and 3 interventions.
  • 02North Kansas City's dashboard request is a useful spec to measure against: student information, assessment, attendance and behavior data in one platform, built for district leaders, principals and teachers.
