Invoke StudentSuccess vs Jisc Learning Analytics

Invoke StudentSuccess analyzes student behaviors to identify learners who may not reach course outcomes and alert staff to intervention needs. It aims to flag students at risk of failing within a course’s first two weeks, and says it can detect struggles only days into a term. The product highlights factors behind its predictions and individual motivators, helping institutions structure personalized interventions, find relevant support services, and direct advising resources. Its analysis can include public-source attributes beyond academic records and use thousands of data elements without personally identifiable information. Capabilities include progress tracking, at-risk alerts, and SIS and LMS integration. Pre-built connectors include Canvas, Blackboard Learn, Zoom, Banner, and PeopleSoft. Institutions can customize student-data access to their governance guidelines and provision users. Invoke says its solutions meet FERPA requirements and support major cloud platforms. Each solution is customized for the institution. Pricing is not published and is available on request; Invoke says onboarding consultation typically takes up to a few weeks, while it can begin delivering insights in a few days.

Jisc Learning Analytics is a paid web platform for universities using student data to support student success, wellbeing, and regulatory needs. It combines information from multiple sources into configurable dashboards, including module-level views. Staff can examine attendance, online activity, assessment submissions, and other engagement measures to spot changes in learning behaviour. Notifications and reports help identify students who may need support. Attendance monitoring covers on-site and remote participation, and a student web app lets learners view engagement data and check in to teaching or support sessions. Jisc says the upgraded platform integrates with major virtual learning environments, timetabling systems, and attendance solutions. Institutions can request discovery and consultancy to assess readiness, infrastructure, and data through a two-day virtual or on-site evaluation. Attendance geolocation is opt-in at institutional and individual levels, with obfuscated location data stored under more restricted access. Pricing is available on request; the listed plan is an optional extra for Jisc members.
