Signals at Purdue U. - Increasing Student Success
August 31, 2009 · Posted in Misc.
To increase the success of their students Purdue University has implemented an intervention system called Signals. It combines predictive modeling and the data mining of their Blackboard Vista system to identify students who are academically at risk. Risk ratings are assigned, integrated with Blackboard and available on the student’s Blackboard homepage. Signals also provides intervention e-mails from instructors and communicates available campus resources to assist the student.
Here is a short video on how Signals works.
