Persistence
Persistence for the Dean of Student Success: who is slipping and why from four systems, where it concentrates on campus, every student with their evidence and case, what works when a case is closed, the staff carrying the load, and the decisions (a campaign on holds, stale alerts to assign, the quiet to check on) with a review and a done state.
One working session with the people in the seat: which decisions, which systems, what a good week looks like.
The app you see above, running on your own exports instead of the simulated world. Every screen, every decision, your numbers.
Wired to your systems with your permissions, agents proposing, people approving, the ledger recording who did what.
Overview
Faculty raise alerts in the LMS, the card system knows who has not been on campus, the bursar knows who has a hold, and advisors keep their own lists. Nobody sees the student across all four until the withdrawal form arrives.
The app scores engagement from the LMS, card swipes, no-shows and holds, and opens on what changed this week and the decisions it implies. A student page shows the alerts with who raised them and whether anyone claimed them; a case opens on the record and the owner's board, and closes with an outcome that feeds the what-works tables. Campus, cohort and advisor views show where it concentrates.
Key features
- Engagement from LMS activity, missing work, card swipes, no-shows and holds, not a risk score.
- Cases with an owner, a first step and an outcome, on the student's record and on a board.
- What works: outcomes and reasons joined to who is still enrolled, by cohort, band and owner.
- Decisions with a review and a done state: campaign on holds, assign stale alerts, check in on the quiet.
Decisions it produces
- Message students with a financial hold and their advisors
- Assign alerts nobody owns
- Check in on students gone quiet
- Open or close a case with an outcome
