Calculus Success is a multi-pronged initiative to support students who are underprepared or otherwise identified as at risk for not passing their required calculus courses. There are four programs in this initiative: 1. Dedicated sections of first-semester calculus for students who do not demonstrate calculus-readiness, supported by undergraduate TAs, with a focus on collaborative learning using the Treisman Model 2. A paired-course model in which students take their first semester calculus course paired with a Signature Course (first-year seminar) course on critical thinking 3. Fall Reset - a program that identifies students who are not performing well in their first-year calculus course and offers them the opportunity to switch to a specially developed pre-calculus section for the remainder of the semester 4. Calculus corequisites - modeled after developmental education corequisites, students who do not demonstrate calculus-readiness are required, and students with other risk factors are invited, to enroll in a 1-hour credit support course for the first half of the semester. The focus of the course is peer-to-peer learning, community building, study skills, and content work.

Career Academy is a dual credit workforce program in a high demand career that leads to a college level 1 certificate while in high school or the summer immediately following high school graduation. Austin Community College offers five Career Academies to help you land an in-demand job as soon as possible in the field of construction, education, manufacturing, health sciences, or IT. Career Academy classes are intended for workforce entry, not university transfer. However, some credits may be applied toward an associate degree. Tuition and fees are waived for participating in-district students. Out-of-district students qualify for significant discounts and pay just $150 per course. These discounts are good for up to 12 courses, after which regular tuition and fees are assessed for both groups. Classes are taught by ACC faculty on ACC campuses (or virtually, when necessary).

Career READY supports students who are interested in pursuing an experience in …
Career READY supports students who are interested in pursuing an experience in a field that typically does not offer pay. Through the Federal Work Study Experiment, students can be awarded pay amounts based on their unmet need. Students work at off campus locations in internships that align with their academic pursuits and they get paid as campus student workers for the semester of their internship experience. Students engage in all the same training and requirements of being an on campus student employee, and they benefit from their off campus training and requirements at their internship site. Students apply for the program via Handshake Experiences where we connect with their site supervisors about their internship experience and provide student and site evaluations. While this program is open to all students who are federal work study eligible, we encourage all students to check with student financial aid about the opportunity to become eligible. We have had 47 students successfully complete the program since spring of 2021, with over $279,000 awarded! Students share that this opportunity allowed them to focus more on their courses and internship experience because they didn’t have to get an extra job to make ends meet. Additionally, a large number of participants have been Education majors, who traditionally work full-time at clinical teaching sites without pay. This program has made a huge difference and impact on them so they could successfully complete their degrees without the stress of limited to no income, or taking out additional student loans.

The vision of the CRED program is to create a culture of life-long learning at UNT Dallas. The three goals that support this vision are the foundation of principals integrated into existing programs and resources to help build a culture where UNT Dallas students are self-motivated to pursue knowledge for professional success and are prepared graduated that employers seek in new hires. The three goals are: 1) students assess career options; 2) students test career expectations through direct exposure to workplace cultures; and 3) students evaluate strategies to maintain job-related effectiveness. Students participate in these goals at each level of their academic journey at UNT Dallas through career exploration activities, in-class assignments, experiential learning participation, and networking with community partners to practice job-attainment activities.

SHSU is a partner of Navigate EAB and utilizes this technology as our primary student success management system. The Coordinated Care Network is a function of Navigate EAB and has been employed at SHSU as a retention-based partnership across several divisions. The Coordinated Care Network supports student success by bridging institutional efforts in receiving and triaging student alerts and referrals through Campus Connect (Navigate EAB). When faculty or staff issue an alert or referral, Campus Connect is configured to enact a chain of technology driven events to connect the student with the expert department who then provides appropriate intervention. Additionally, we target high-needs students to submit an alert or referral on themselves to receive assistance with their particular need(s). Overall, students who are alerted through the Coordinated Care Network and/or self-alert process experience positive gains in credit completion, term GPA outcomes, and persistence rates.
