Abstract | This article describes Hanover College's Early Alert Team, an early-alert program that seeks to identify students' academic, social, or personal troubles as soon as they surface. The team's five members gather information about students from all corners of the campus and then devise strategies to help them. The early-alert system has not only helped administrators identify students' problems before they escalate, but has also allowed the college to collect data on what kind of students tend to leave, and why. Because much of the team's maneuvering takes place behind the scenes, most Hanover students do not know that the program exists. That's how administrators would like to keep it. Officials say that the invisibility of the early-alert network system helps the college nudge students to get the help they need, without stigmatizing them as failures. (ERIC). |
