Empower your Students with the Tools Necessary to Drive Future Success.
Traditional Transcripts Lack Whole Student Perspective
Student success has traditionally been gauged by standardized test scores, grades, GPAs, and class rankings. At the end of an academic journey, a student is given a transcript as a reflection of their academic success. As they prepare for the next steps of college and career readiness, the transcript becomes an invaluable piece of information that showcases their academic performance.
While a traditional transcript provides a clear view of how well a student performed academically, it misses the mark on an increasingly important facet of a student’s overall educational success – the social and emotional development.
Civic and community engagement are vital cogs in college and career readiness. However, students are tasked with the burden of recording their own involvement throughout their entire academic career. The results?
- Untracked or inaccurate service hours
- Difficulty recalling past experiences and events
- Community involvement is viewed as a task rather than a valuable experience.
- Lack of self-reflection and recognition on the impact of their contributions.
- Inequitable situations arise as important skills, activities, and community involvement go unnoticed and unrecognized within the school community.
- Engagement suffers as students are left feeling unmotivated and unrecognized.
