But can you change a student's trajectory? The college has experimented with various intervention strategies, so far with mixed results. For example, early data showed students in general-education courses who log in on Day 1 of class succeed 21 percent more often than those who don't. So Rio Salado blasted welcome e-mails to students the night before courses began, encouraging them to log in. That sounds dubious -- she's taking an indicator of class engagement, and hoping to improve class engagement by changing it. But hey, you never know what may help people. She should send out those emails to half the class, with the other half as a control group. |
