Actionable Insights

Data-driven decision-making is key to institutional success, bolstering academic achievement, increasing retention and student persistence, and supporting family and student well-being. We collaborate with schools and organizations to gather data so to identify trends and actionable insights.

The Student Success Survey (S3) can be taken anonymously as well as with identifiable information when students, families, and schools decide to do so. Data and recommendations are provided to schools and organizations, and we also collaborate to track student progress and conduct research at the organizational level and overall institution of education.

Book

The Good Student: How to Take Control of Your College Years is written to equip every high school and college student with the insights and skills necessary to smoothly transition into and through college. 

Decades of research and first-hand experiences are used to help students find a fulfilling career, graduate sooner, have zero or less debt, and be healthy and happy through it all. 
"In the award-winning PBS series Discovering Psychology, I cover the fundamental principles in psychology and make the subject accessible to the public. In this book, my mentee, Joe, has done the same for college access and success. He makes use of personal experiences, applies years of empirical research, and his personable teaching style to help young people connect the dots from their present to a fulfilling future.

Fundamental to this work is the highlight of psychological factors that influence college success and life outcomes, which include mental health, a sense of belonging, and most effective mindsets. Any student who is interested in achieving academic success, gaining life direction, navigating college, living healthy, and maximizing their time in college should read this book. This book also highlights self-development, civic engagement, and other crucial topics that make a college experience whole and worthwhile.

Those who support students, such as parents and counselors, also need to read this book to gain a comprehensive look at the obstacles that emerging adults face. This book addresses the distinct challenges of diverse student populations, such as first-generation college students, minorities, women in STEM, and athletes. Furthermore, school leaders will benefit from this read as they will find useful initiatives and practices to increase academic achievement, retention, and the long-term success of their pupils and institutions. Joe establishes himself as an expert in the field.

I highly recommend this book and The Good Student organization, which offers the Student Success Survey (S3). This survey will enable students to get immediate support to life challenges and streamline their journey to school and life success. Joe's work is especially needed during the challenges of the pandemic and changes in learning environments. This is the right vaccine for the institution of education."
