Supporting Early Warning Systems: Using Data to Keep Students on Track to Success. Data for Action 2014
Data Quality Campaign
Early warning systems combine multiple data points, translate them into predictive indicators that are based on research, and proactively communicate them to stakeholders, so they can examine which students are or are not on track for postsecondary success and intervene accordingly. Early warning reports provide the student-level information necessary to develop interventions that will help guide students back on track. States can use early warning data to work toward broader policy goals, such as school improvement efforts and increased graduation rates. This brief report highlights statistics about state production and use of early warning reports.
