Ep. 122: Voices of Student Success: Tech Solutions for Student Mental Health
COVID-19 spurred investments into digital solutions for health and wellness of students, but are they successful?
Zakiya Ellis, a longtime policy expert, on whether we’re asking the right questions and have the right data.
This week’s episode of The Key podcast explores a vexing question: How might policy makers and college leaders go about showing that getting a postsecondary education pays off later in life?
The episode features a conversation with Zakiya Smith Ellis, a principal at the education policy consulting firm Education Counsel and former senior Obama education aide and secretary of education in New Jersey.
Ellis shares her thoughts on how we’ve gotten to the point where we are assessing college value primarily by looking at individuals’ financial outcomes, whether we’re asking the right questions about the benefits of college-going and what institutional leaders should be doing to make sure their academic programs are serving students well.
The Key is hosted by Inside Higher Ed Co-founder and Editor Doug Lederman. This episode is sponsored by the Strada Education Foundation.
