Persistence Plus Product Website
Overview [Long description]: Persistence Plus is a student-centered mobile platform that uses nudges informed by behavioral science to help students develop academic mindsets and behaviors that can lead to success. The nudges—received by students in the form of text messages or push notifications—are personalized to students and tailored to each institution’s important dates and deadlines. But Persistence Plus stresses that its nudges are not just reminders, but messages that leverage behavioral principles to overcome the psychological barriers to student success. For instance, nudges might reframe challenges that students encounter as a normal part of the college experience. Some nudges are interactive, posing questions. Students’ real-time responses are analyzed through natural language processing and artificial intelligence which parses what they say and chooses how to respond appropriately. This information also is used to determine which nudges students later receive. There is no web-based version of the tool; Persistence Plus consults with administrators, sharing usage analytics and reports.
