This project involved facilitating a community college district in their design of a virtual collaboration and feedback system that bridged the needs of academic instruction and student support services in one centralized information system. This Early Alert System (EAS) electronically identified, tracked, and provided feedback for students who were at risk for not completing a particular course.

This project involved facilitating a community college district in their design of a virtual collaboration and feedback system that bridged the needs of academic instruction and student support services in one centralized information system. This Early Alert System (EAS) electronically identified, tracked, and provided feedback for students who were at risk for not completing a particular course. The goals of the project were to increase the likelihood that a student would complete a particular course with a passing grade, while at the same time, creating an iterative feedback loop between counselors and faculty about students, so that a more encompassing, collaborative environment of support and intervention could be created for students.
