Stop The Drop. Engage Your At-Risk Students
For open-access, private-sector educational institutions, the biggest opportunities and the biggest challenges have the same origin: the non-traditional student. By serving a non-traditional student population, career and professional colleges and universities have tapped into a long-ignored market with great need and strong potential for growth. But the customer — i.e., the career or professional college student — requires a higher level of service and attention than a traditional higher-education student.

The modern classroom is alive with the clicking of laptops and tapping of smart phones, and it’d be naive to think their owners are just dutifully taking notes.Enter a new breed of educational apps that aim to re-engage those same students via the smartphones that distract them. These student response apps run on students’ personal smartphones to turn class lectures into a two-way dialogue. Students can use the apps to participate in class lectures, discussions and even competitions, all without looking up from their phones.
