Abstract | Colleges are increasingly using models to predict student behavior and intervene to change that behavior. Because of this, when projects involve partnering with a vendor, it is more important than ever to make the right choice about which vendor. In some ways, partnering with a vendor to use predictive analytics is similar to procuring any other technology product. But the complexity of the algorithms--and the predictions they produce--add another layer to the decision-making process. This guide gives administrators the tools to ask the right set of questions of predictive analytics vendors and provides a sense of what kind of answers they should expect. It focuses on ensuring that vendors use predictive analytics tools like early alert systems in an ethical manner. (ERIC). |
