Ensuring student success has always been a top priority. However, the traditional approach of waiting for early alerts to identify struggling students and provide support is no longer enough. 

Element451 adopts a distinct strategy in how schools can offer student support. Our aim is to transition from early warning signs to early achievements. Early alerts imply that students receive information in real-time, precisely when it has the greatest impact on driving successful outcomes. 

Early success is our ultimate goal. It means that students receive timely guidance through their preferred communication channels and on the exact topics they require assistance with. By shifting the focus from reactive responses to proactive measures, we aim to empower students and enable them to thrive academically.

Early Success, Not Early Alerts - 2023 Engage Summit

Traditionally, early alerts were the go-to method for identifying struggling students. However, relying solely on these alerts limited the opportunity to proactively engage and support students. 

With automation, administrators can now automate specific tasks and create dynamic to-do lists, allowing for a more proactive approach to student success.

Automation provides administrators with a game-changing tool: queues. These queues act as dynamic to-do lists, ensuring that repetitive tasks are streamlined and completed efficiently. 

Imagine a low-attendance queue that automatically assigns advisors to meet with struggling students and develop customized improvement plans. Automation simplifies these processes, empowering administrators to work smarter and dedicate more time to proactive support.

Automation isn't just about streamlining tasks; it's about working more intelligently. By utilizing workflows, tasks can be assigned to advisors or team members based on round-robin assignments or task load. This allows for better task management across the board, ensuring that no student falls through the cracks.
