During School Year
Identify Threshold Trigger Patterns
Identifying and analyzing threshold trigger patterns is a great opportunity for technical and data systems to support student success teams in understanding the “why” behind patterns in the data.
Technology Action
Aggregate Threshold Alerts
Bring all data used to identify students at-risk of not graduating on time into one dashboard view
Consider data around D/Fs, chronic absenteeism, behaviors, and well-being data in a single dashboard
Technology Action
Create Data Visualizations for Analysis
Create visualizations to show where students are at risk or triggering threshold alerts across specific subjects
Human Action
Evaluate Data Recency
Evaluate the recency of report data and determine if more current data is required for decision making
If there are large time gaps between data points, prompt the system to include these distinctions in any visualizations.
Technology Action
Identify Patterns Across Subject Areas
Conduct multi-variable analysis to indicate statistical outliers and trends. Identify patterns and isolate root causes to determine interventions that best support learners’ success.
Technology Action
Disaggregate Threshold Data
Disaggregate threshold data by classes within the relevant subject(s) worthy of deeper investigation to determine if the fail rate falls within specific courses
Human Action
Analyze Data Visualizations for Patterns
Review data visualizations to determine which subjects or grade levels have the most students triggering threshold alerts or are close to triggering threshold alerts
Human Action
Understand Threshold Patterns
Evaluate the “why” behind this pattern
Explore Evaluate Thresholds to plan this pattern analysis
Technology Action
Audit Patterns for Bias
Integrate threshold reviews and bias audits into automated meeting agenda generation
Human Action
Collaborate Across School Staff, Students, and Caregivers
Collaborate with relevant classroom educators and school staff to understand the challenges from their perspectives and determine which intervention best addresses core challenges, when possible
This is particularly important before a grading period closes to offer the best chance for passing before grades are final.
