Student Success

In this scenario, learners complete a series of RDSOs centered on responsible variable selection for a student success early warning system. Rather than building a model, they must evaluate potential data inputs for privacy, fairness, compliance, and real-world impact, culminating in a Variable Selection Brief that governs what data can—and cannot—be used. The focus is on practicing judgment, not just technical skill.

Start Learning

The Student Success scenario provides the following learning opportunities:

  • Synthesize the C+DS and make predictions for the DST to come (RDSO: SSS.001)
  • Work freely with a dataset and a given task to gain an understanding of the data at hand (RDSO: SSS.002)
  • Use observed experience with the DST to make inferences and extrapolate concepts to other scenarios (RDSO: SSS.003)
  • Resolve cognitive dissonance between initial prediction and observed experience (RDSO: SSS.004)
