With the Academic Engagement Accelerator, you can:
Identify at-risk students weeks earlier, using data you already have
Focus advisors and academic teams on the students who need attention most
Give leadership confidence that engagement and retention efforts are working
Why student engagement is harder to manage than it should be
Institutions are under pressure to stabilize enrollment and improve retention. But the signals that matter most are often hidden in plain sight.
Engagement risk is identified too late
Disengagement begins in the LMS long before it appears in grades, alerts, or withdrawal reports. When action comes late, outcomes are already decided.
LMS data isn’t connected to academic context
Activity data exists, but without SIS context, it’s difficult to understand which students are truly at risk, and why.
Teams lack a shared view of student engagement
Advisors, academic affairs, enrollment, and leadership often operate from different data and different definitions of engagement. That fragmentation slows action and weakens results.
What changes with the Academic Engagement Accelerator
The Academic Engagement Accelerator is a purpose-built solution that turns existing LMS and SIS data into early engagement signals, so institutions can intervene sooner and retain more students.
Earlier identification of
at-risk students
Accelerators blend LMS and SIS data into focused dashboards and workflows that surface disengagement before it becomes attrition.
WHAT YOU GET:
- Early warning indicators tied to real student behavior
- Clear visibility into engagement trends across courses and terms
- Prioritized views of students who need support now
- Fewer surprises late in the semester
More targeted advising and academic support
With engagement and academic context in one place, teams can focus their time where it matters most.
WHAT YOU GET:
- Advisors guided by data, not guesswork
- Consistent engagement definitions across departments
- Less manual data pulling and reconciliation
- More meaningful, timely student outreach
Improved retention and persistence
When institutions act earlier, interventions are more effective—and students are more likely to stay enrolled.
WHAT YOU GET:
- Stronger term-to-term persistence
- Fewer students quietly disengaging
- Engagement strategies grounded in evidence
- Retention gains without adding new systems
Confidence at the leadership level
Executives need assurance that engagement risks are visible and being addressed without waiting for end-of-term results.
WHAT YOU GET:
- Institution-wide insight into engagement health
- Clear connections between engagement and retention outcomes
- Fewer anecdotal updates, more confidence in decisions
- Stronger narratives for planning and accountability
Academic Engagement:
Before and After
Without a shared, transparent view of student engagement, institutions are left reacting to outcomes instead of preventing them. The Academic Engagement Accelerator changes that—connecting LMS and SIS data so every team sees the same student story and can act with confidence.
Before
- Engagement issues discovered after impact
- LMS data viewed in isolation
- Advisors unsure where to focus
- Reactive, last-minute interventions
- Retention measured in hindsight
After
- Engagement risk identified while action is still possible
- LMS and SIS data combined into a unified student story
- Clear prioritization of students needing support
- Proactive, timely engagement strategies
- Retention actively influenced throughout the term
