Appreciative Toolbox Agenda
DISCOVER: 4 interconnected tools that have unique purposes
• Integrated Graduation Planning System (iGPS)• Student Success Collaborative (SSC)• Advising Records (AdRx)• Student Appointment Scheduler (SAS)
DREAM: How do you – or might you – use these tools now?
DESIGN: How could you imagine using these tools?
DESTINY: Upcoming Enhancements for these tools
I N D I A N A U N I V E R S I T Y 4
DISCOVER: Interactive Graduation Planning System (iGPS)
Purpose Serves as the unified portal for all information about student degree progress Keeps students actively involved in planning their paths through college Provide more timely feedback on student degree progress so that students and
advisors can monitor and adjust as needed. Provides feedback to departments about future semester course demands so they can
more efficiently schedule and students don’t face delays in graduating due to course unavailability
Features Ties together services already available in the SIS--degree maps, the student’s Plan, Course
and Class Search, Schedule Builder, and Academic Advisement Reports (AARs) Connects those services to the FLAGS early alerts and AdRX (Advising Records) Can be used in conjunction with the SSC platform to provide comprehensive picture of
student progress Systems can be built to “share” information and to allow for meaningful analysis of student
progress towards degrees

success markers Use data filters to identify groups of students for early intervention or
reinforcement Organize and track outreach efforts Trigger personal reminders Compare possible majors and careers for specific students
