In this month's KMWorld Raths wrote an article about using learning analytics to predict at-risk students in higher education. Using products like Signals institutions are able to evaluate student demographics and performance to identify those students that are struggle academically.

I can image this will greatly improve recruitment efforts but it is also great to see institutions use this new tool set to help students succeed.
