ACT NOW Program Update
I would be interested to see if anyone has any comments or critiques on the ACT NOW Program that I am currently working on. The goal of the program is to let students know that we care about their academic performance and that someone is looking out for them as individuals.
The website gives students a checklist of things that need to be completed, requires them to make a mandatory advisement appointment and also compels them to attend a workshop. I conducted the program on my own last year and now I have the assistance of two phenomenal staff members. We don't have much hard and fast data on the program outcomes, but I want to know what other schools do to reach out to their AT-RISK population that is innovative and different.
