Season 2 is just around the corner! While we wait, here’s a bonus episode exploring one theme that came up repeatedly in season 1. Our guests continued to return to the idea of not limiting your use of data to historical analytics that revealed past trends. Instead, they recommend using a broad range of actionable analytics to proactively engage with students needing help.

In this episode, we’ve pulled together a compilation of clips from season 1 that explore this topic. You’ll hear from Karl Smith, Vice President of Student Affairs at Tacoma Community College, Dr. Tammy Wyatt, Vice Provost for Student Success at UTSA, and our own Rob Freidhoff, Vice President of Community Development at Civitas Learning.
