At-Risk Detection Logic

At-risk detection identifies students whose outcome mastery is below a configured threshold.

What triggers at-risk status

  • A student’s mastery score for an outcome falls below the defined success threshold.
  • A combination of low mastery and declining trend increases risk priority.

Thresholds

  • Thresholds are typically defined at the campus or course level.
  • The system compares mastery scores against the applicable threshold for the student’s class.

How it is used

  • At-risk students are surfaced in the teacher cockpit.
  • The cockpit uses this signal to prioritize interventions and progress checks.
  • At-risk status is a prompt for the teacher, not an automatic action.

Practical notes

  • A student can be at risk on one outcome but not others.
  • Teachers should review both current mastery and trend confidence before deciding on next steps.
  • At-risk detection should trigger a review, not an automatic intervention.
  • Cross-check at-risk students with heatmap and snapshot trends before planning support.
