Breakthroughs on the road to student success

As colleges work to implement changes at their respective campuses, they often turn to stories of success as testimonial that it “can be done.” These successes are documented and shared both in print and online. Researchers distill from these successes various themes or lessons learned that others can or should replicate. What is often missing is the detail about how to make it happen, especially on a day-to-day basis. What do you do when you hit a roadblock? To whom do you turn for advice when you need a decision today? Who else is going through this?

Breakthroughs

Breakthroughs tell a story as it unfolds in a documentary style using a variety of media. These documentaries may focus on a single college or highlight efforts across several campuses. All stories are set within the regional context and the larger vision for student success.

Audio and/or video recording and still photography of project participants.
