What Does Technology-Mediated Advising (iPASS) Look Like in Practice?

Achieving the Dream Annual Institute on Student Success
February 22, 2017
San Francisco, CA

As part of a randomized controlled trial (RCT), three colleges are partnering with CCRC and MDRC to design and implement technology-mediated advising reforms; each college's redesign is grounded in theory and research supporting strategic and holistic advising. To do this, the colleges have articulated a clear description of how technology-mediated advising can be structured and deployed in terms of processes and advisor behaviors. In this session, the research team and the colleges presented each institution's iPASS design and their experiences implementing the reform. Presenters also described the larger study.
