 “Today’s students use laptops, smart phones and tablets not only to communicate with friends and professors, but also to make appointments, purchase goods and services, watch movies, and do research. This is where our students spend much of their time, and we must create smart applications that make it easier for them to pursue and reach their educational goals.”

 “Scaling up the use of technology is one of the few viable approaches to reach substantially more students, many of whom prefer navigating their pathway through community college in an online environment.”  “…the CCC system needs to look towards the creation of centralized student support modules that offer high interactivity with local campus and district IT and administrative systems.”

 “An additional benefit to the creation and maintenance of centralized technology utilities is that doing so will create huge economies of scale for the system.”

 “Community Colleges will develop and use centralized and integrated technology, which can be accessed through campus or district web portals, to better guide students in their educational process.”  Recommendation 2.3

 “The creation of online resources that would support advisement and allow many students to self-manage their academic pathways is essential.”

 “(data) can be aggregated in educational data warehouses, leveraged, and used to help advise students on effective pathways through college…An example of this would be the use of analysis of past student outcomes in various courses for students at various levels of basic skills to create an advisement matrix.”  “These technological applications will generate efficiencies, but more importantly they will increase and improve communications with students by using platforms they already rely on to manage their daily lives.”
