That’s why being able to assess and predict thesuccess of a student is so important. If a student is struggling or fallingbehind, technology that can help to intervene at an early stage can change theoutcome for that person and also reduce the number of non-graduates at aninstitution. Ivy Tech Community College: Project Student Success InIndiana, Ivy Tech Community College conducted a pilot study using AI to getdata from ,-course sections. By identifying , students at risk of failing inthe first two weeks of the semester, the college assigned outreach workers tocall each student and offer support.
By the end of the semester, , studentswere saved from failing –of the contacted students obtained a C Level Executive List C grade orbetter. Through Project Student Success, the college has already assisted ,students. We had the largest percentage drop in bad grades Ds and Fs that thecollege had recorded in fifty years,said Lige Hensley, Chief TechnologyOfficer, Ivy Tech. That one phone call wasn’t everything but it certainly madea bigger dent than we had ever seen. University of Michigan: M-Write programOne time-consuming area of teaching is assessing student work and providingfeedback. A range of tools are in development in this area for institutions,including M-Write, incubated by the University of Michigan. M-Write is atechnology designed to help faculty tackle writing activities at scale. It usesan algorithm to identify areas of a writing piece in which students arestruggling and the issues that could contribute to weaker writing. As part ofthe M-Write program, senior lecturer Brenda Gunderson introduced a series ofwriting prompts. These are targeted to elicit specific responses that indicatehow well students grasp the concepts covered in class.
completed the writing assignments, submitted them,and received three of their peers’ assignments for review. This automatedsystem then used this data to create course-specific algorithms that couldidentify struggling students. Drive Personalized Learning One of the thingseducators are most excited about when it comes to AI is the potential to helppersonalize learning. This not only offers ways for students to get one-to-onetutoring but also allows faculty to use AI to create lesson plans and identifystudents who may need additional help based on their performance andinteractions. Add value to your marketing program Walden University:Julian As early as , Walden University had eyes on artificial intelligence as away to improve its offering to students and trump its peers.
