Design Principles for a Student-Centered Higher Education Ecosystem by Jeykid Acosta https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo Made with a bold sensibility en-us 2018-07-16 01:26:14 UTC 2026-01-13 23:20:11 UTC hello@padlet.com jeykid_acosta https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270271760 2018-07-16 03:38:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270271760 "It is impossible to redesign students into a system, but we can re-design a system for students. This can be the difference between success or failure for our students that need the promise of higher education the most." jeykid_acosta https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270271853 Joseph South, Director, Office of Educational technology]]> 2018-07-16 03:38:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270271853 Design Principle # 2 jeykid_acosta https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270272119 "Helps students make wise financial decisions about postsecondary education."

 Predictive analytics is an essential tool at meeting this design principle. Through predictive analytics, students will receive efficient academic advisement that will push them towards graduation. Through this technology, students will be able to chose courses that will help them meet all academic requirements and not put them in a position where they will end up pushing their graduation by one or two year and at the same time increasing their chances for additional debt.]]> 2018-07-16 03:43:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270272119 Design Principle # 6 jeykid_acosta https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270273457 "Enable advisors to help students progress through changing needs and circumstances."

Predictive analytics will provide students with access to big data on students have been through similar circumstances. This will allow advisors to provide information to students that is based on data. Data driven decision will help alleviate student concerns and in the long run increase retention and graduation rates.]]> 2018-07-16 04:05:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270273457 Design Principle # 7 jeykid_acosta https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270273870 "Help institutions identify and provide timely and targeted assistance to students."

Predictive analytic platforms have features that track student academic progress. At any point where a student is at risk, the system will create prompts for advisors to follow up and intervene. This type of "high-touch" approach to advising can make the difference between failure and success. This type of academic advising is the type of advising first-generation and student that come from low-income backgrounds need the most. ]]> 2018-07-16 04:11:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270273870 Introduction jeykid_acosta https://padlet.com/jeykid_acosta/14u52n7wjbfo/wish/270769694   For the purpose of this reflection, I applied the design principles to how our predictive analytics system works or should work. I focused on design principles two, six, and seven. While there are other design principles that are fitting with our predictive analytics system I chose these to be the most relevant at the time of the assignment.
