EGSC is seeking to improve the rate at which students complete the English composition series and required math course within their first 30 hours of coursework. We understand that failure to complete these vital and foundational courses in the early portion of a student’s education journey can hinder the student by blocking courses that need the prerequisite and by limiting the number of choices a student has available to choose from during each successive registration period.

Research situation for English language learners (ELLs) in ENGL 1101 through the administration of surveys to students.

From this research, we may create a project to provide additional ELL support to ENGL 1101 faculty and/or students.

Research the ways faculty employ GeorgiaVIEW as well as the ways students view their experience using it in their face-to-face, hybrid, and online classes to determine the usefulness and feasibility of creating a common course experience for students in the learning management system.

Expand the use of Student Lingo as a course supplement/academic resource for students beyond the PRSP curriculum.

Research the possibilities of instituting inclusive textbook access – the idea that students would receive all digital course materials at a discounted rate, directly billed as part of their tuition. This model supports student academic success and retention efforts by ensuring every student is prepared on or before the first day of class.

An alternative presented by our textbook provider is branded as “equitable” access – the idea that students could pay a flat rate each semester for all course materials, print or digital.

AMSC will implement pre, real-time, and post semester strategies to improve student retention.  Retention strategies will be targeted based on student type, age group (traditional vs. adult learners), gender, first generation, and enrollment status (full-time vs. part-time).  Hanover Research has completed a study to identify factors that impact student retention at AMSC.

This project involves process mapping to identify and remove process barriers that prohibit students from graduating within 150% of expected time to completion.  Complete College America (CCA) will conduct a process mapping analysis of AMSC’s admissions and retention processes. Based on the outcomes of this analysis, AMSC will address CCA recommendations for process improvements and monitor the impact on student progression and completion.

Pilot introduction of AI enhanced Chat Bot for academic support in large sections of the core curriculum.

Georgia State University was one of the 1^st institutions in the country to use an AI-Enhanced Chatbot to address issues of summer melt for new students and continuous enrollment for continuing students. .[1] This project expands the use of this technology to the classroom to increase successful completion of the class.
