Student Engagement 

ZogoTech's Student Engagement software empowers student services groups with information they need from various sources (i.e. Colleague, PeopleSoft, Banner, National Student Clearinghouse) to effectively serve students and assess the result.

Proactively Intervene

Many student services groups are in reactive mode: waiting until students show up for help. Some institutions have developed "early alert" programs, but in these the intervention does not usually happen until the middle of the semester.

However, if you have a student who is retaking classes, enrolled in a gatekeeper class, has a low GPA and has significantly increased his / her credits in the current term, intervening in the middle of the semester will be too late. ZogoTech's software points out these students so you can intervene before the semester even starts.

At-risk Indicators


ZogoTech's software includes automatically computed at-risk indicators from Noel-Levitz and others telling advisors if a student
  • is retaking a class
  • is registered for significantly more hours this semester but has not seen an advisor
  • has experienced a significant drop in GPA
  • is enrolled in "gateway" classes
  • has missed tutoring sessions
  • and more...

Proactive Enrollment Management

On a daily basis during registration, departments can see which of their students have not yet re-registered, those who are at-risk, or who are close to graduating based on completed credit hours.

Advise Comprehensively

ZogoTech's software enables quicker and more effective advising by aggregating information from various sources into a user-friendly interface.

With a Culture of Inquiry, advisors run in-depth analyses on the program they are running and the students they are advising

Unified View of Student Information



Unified View of Student Information

Consolidate Multiple Data Sources

  • National Student Clearinghouse Integration - See where else a student took classes, even if he/she didn't tell the college
  • CCSSE and other survey information (if disaggregated)

Coordinate with Other Departments

  • Refer students to other departments and/or advisors
  • See a list of "My follow-up Contacts" informing advisors which students have been referred to them
  • Allow faculty to flag students as at-risk and refer them to advising

Empower End Users


Easily Run Reports

End-users have access to all information from Datatel Colleague, National Student Clearinghouse and other sources to run reports without having to go through another department.

Sample Reports

  • GPA, Class Enrollments, Test Summary, Financial Aid, Degrees
  • Distributions by ethnicity, gender, cohort, etc.
  • Students retaking classes


Student Navigator

Personalized Communication

  • Contact students through the use of email, mail-merge, mailing labels and phone lists
  • Record contacts with the students in a secure centralized location, for future reference, reporting and assessment
  • One click to contact any students in a group (i.e. send emails to all students receiving financial aid who have dropped below 12 hours)
  • Record contacts, either one-by-one or in a batch, for future reference, auditing and reporting (i.e. busiest times of day, service impact, trends over time, etc.)


Personalized Communication

Assess Outcomes

Estudias is the only software that links intervention data with outcome data from multiple sources.

Integration with Institutionally Compiled Outcome Data

  • Link services to graduation, retention and GPAs
  • See metrics computed from outcome data, such as classifying students as "Stop-out" or "Transfer-out"

Measure Service Impact

National Student Clearinghouse Integration

  • Show transfer students to better track students and improve success measurements
  • Identify students who have taken summer classes at other schools
  • Identify schools that students most often transfer to
  • See student's success in transfer institutions

Accreditation

  • Document interventions consistently across departments
  • Interventions can be linked to Student Learning Outcomes


Academic Success Comparison

Integrate Departmental Processes


While some student services groups have general needs, many have specific business processes. Simply measuring the number of students walking through the door is sometimes more of a burden than a help as these groups then have to duplicate that information in a separate database that does address their needs. For example, TRIO needs to generate an Annual Performance Report every year. Testing centers need to keep track of which tests a student is eligible to take and need to estimate staffing requirements. Estudias provides different levels of business processes built-in for different groups.
