Beginning in 2018, Trellis conducted user research with students to identify technological needs for student success relative to their time at the University.

Two key areas emerged. Students experience challenges in trying to organize and make sense of all their class efforts and they also desire to have a clear sense of how they were doing overall in a particular term. CatCloud can solve these concerns through two main points of interaction:

• A summary of upcoming items due across all enrolled classes, fed by D2L course data
• A review of grade performance and ability to achieve a grade goal within each enrolled class, fed by D2L course data

The intention is that by solving the friction experienced by students in these areas, student quality of experience, grades and retention rates will all increase.

We need your help to make CatCloud function at its highest capacity. If you instruct students, please visit the CatCloud website to see what resources are available to you!
