 By 2020, America will once again have the highest proportion of college graduates in the world. These words, delivered by President Barack Obama in his address to Congress in February 2009, are only achievable if students satisfactorily complete high school. Remediation in the traditional subjects of reading, writing, and arithmetic is possibly the leading barrier to improving college graduation rates. Just 41% of college-bound students are prepared for the world of higher education, and only one fourth of students who place into college remedial writing, English, or math courses will graduate within eight years. Remediation is often considered a bridge to nowhere. Succeed U will build a bridge to somewhere. With Succeed U, more high school graduates will have the requisite skills to enroll and graduate from college as well as to achieve their academic, professional, and personal enrichment goals. The overall purpose of Succeed U is to create an integrated academic, social, and instructional support college readiness model using mobile technology that will increase the number of high school students who are prepared for college-level, credit-bearing course work upon graduation. Succeed U is scalable, adaptable, and cost-effective. It is designed to support high-impact learning at the local, state, and national levels. Succeed U features an integrated approach to student success including development of competency-based, modular curricula in math, reading, writing, and college skills that maximize the use of free, existing, open educational resources, OER, and development of new OER curricula aligned with outcomes for accepted college placement exams. An OER learning platform will be used. The curricula will be delivered in a competency-based format including self-paced, direct assessment methods. As learners complete assignments, assessments will be designed to measure proficiency with the concepts. The materials will be portable and scalable under a Creative Commons license. Provide student success and support through a mobile, technology-supporting environment including a co-advising model available online or in a blended delivery, mobile application that fosters a community of learners, and Succeed U success coaches. Credentialing in the form of badges, upon demonstrated mastery of content, students will be awarded a Succeed U badge to denote successful completion, www.openbadges.org. As students complete the self-paced, competency-based modules, they will receive a badge for each component successfully completed. Success coaches will be awarded a badge for successfully completing the competency-based qualification training module. Additional badges can be earned from milestones such as the number of students assisted or the length of participation in the program. Succeed U co-advising models are intended to establish a flexible model for advising high school students using mobile technology and or face-to-face coaches. Succeed U will feature integrated, intrusive, technology-supported coaching and mentoring throughout the student experience. Succeed U will engage students through a mobile student success application, such as the one developed by EDUCAUSE Team 1. This application will allow students to record data about their daily activities, including how many hours they study, socialize, sleep, spend time with tutors, etc. The mobile application will provide feedback comparing how their time spent compares with their peers. In addition, an Ask Us portion of the mobile app would allow students to ask questions they might have and get a response from a group of experts, success coaches who monitor the application 24-7. Examples are questions about content, completing forms, applications, FAFSA scholarships, fears they are experiencing, financial, confidence to attend college, or career information. Coaches from a variety of backgrounds, academic, financial aid, counseling, would be recruited and trained to respond to the questions. Participants in the Succeed U mobile app will become a community of learners. Succeed U will provide a model that can be adopted and adapted for use locally, at the state level, and nationally to support the nation's completion agenda, as more high school graduates will have the requisite skills to enroll and graduate from college, as well as to achieve their academic, professional, and personal enrichment goals.
