The demographics of students entering Higher Education has changed - and so have their support needs.
At your University, more than 80% of students would be classed as "new majority learners".
What does that mean for their support needs?
New majority learners are defined as learners who identify with one or more of the following:
We estimate that at your University, more than 80% of students would be classed as part of the "new majority".
If student demographics have changed so vastly, how does support need to change?
There are 3 groups within the "new majority" that need academic support:

How did we estimate that more than 80% of students at your University would be classed as "new majority learners"?
Through data made available through the National Center for Education Statistics.
Want to understand more about the "new majority"? Our experts will gladly walk you through the data and help you understand how you can reach the populations of students who need additional support.
eg students with disabilities, ESL students
These students have accessibility needs - especially the hundreds, if not thousands of students at your University who have access needs but aren't seeking support.
Glean helps students to equitably access information in class and capture it for later study.
eg working students, students with children
These students have efficiency needs - they lack time and attention for studies due to the competing demands on their life.
Glean helps these students to return to and summarize lecture content when missed due to work.
eg first generation students, mature students
These students have study skills needs - they often struggle a lecture-based learning environment, either because they've never been taught how to thrive, or because they're returning after a long break.
Glean's inbuilt CORA process teaches students how to study from lectures - by encouraging students to organise and refine their notes after class.

93% of students at Florida Atlantic University were estimated to be part of the "new majority".
Michelle Shaw at Florida Atlantic University knew that there were many student populations at FAU who also needed additional support - support that would help them to persist and graduate from their studies.
Michelle advocated for Glean to be implemented campus wide and can now help countless students who wouldn't have qualified for traditional accommodations.
