My senior team is now being asked to document everything we do with our seniors in order to encourage a higher passing rate.<br />
<br />
We have included the following:<br />
<br />
Google Documents<br />
Turnitin.com<br />
Twitter<br />
Wikispaces<br />
<br />
Phone calls and emails home<br />
Planning for post graduation jobs/education etc.<br />
<br />
Does anyone else have some ideas we can use to encourage these seniors to graduate?<br />
These area mainly middle to lower class families, including all the large demographic groups in the U.S.<br />

Please clue me in!
