 * Providing Student Services 24/7 **

With increasingly limited resources and high demands from today's students, institutions are finding it difficult to provide services to all students in a cost-effective manner. Several institutions are turning to technology-based solutions to solve this program. One example is StudentLingo, a series of interactive on-demand workshops, action plans, and valuable resources focused on helping students achieve their academic, personal, and career goals. This webinar will explore how Foothill College is currently using StudentLingo to provide 24/7 resources for students. The presenter, Dr. Denise Swett, will focus on how Foothill College utilizes StudentLingo to increase student success and retention.

// Interactivity // We will begin the session discussing statistics related to our current student population and use an interactive game to communicate this information. We will then ask participants to explain and share what they are currently doing on their campuses to solve issues related to providing 24/7 student support services. Next we will discuss the use of podcasts, web conferencing and videos. We will define each of these tools and explain educational applications. We will demo examples. Finally, we will explain StudentLingo a series of on-demand student success workshops and demo the videos.
