The continued rise in the absenteeism rate of American students has become a serious social problem. To solve this problem, American education technology company Edia has launched an innovative tool based on AI technology, aiming to effectively reduce students' absenteeism through intelligent parent communication and personalized intervention programs. This tool can monitor students' attendance in real time and automatically send multilingual text messages to parents to promptly understand the reasons for absence and mark and remind special circumstances, thereby assisting schools in better managing students' attendance and detecting and solving potential problems early.
American education technology company Edia recently launched a breakthrough AI tool that is committed to solving the increasingly serious student absenteeism in American schools through intelligent parent communication and personalized intervention solutions. Data shows that in the past two years, the long-term absenteeism rate of American students has climbed from 15% in 2018 to 26% in 2023, an issue that has attracted widespread attention.
The most striking feature of this innovative tool is its fast responsiveness. It can connect to the school’s existing student information system (SIS) in real time, and automatically send detailed follow-up text messages to parents within 15 minutes after discovering that students are unexpectedly absent from work. The system supports automatic translation in more than 100 languages to ensure that information transmission is not affected by language barriers.
Edia CEO Joe Philleo pointed out that in the face of the rising absenteeism rate, it is difficult for school administrators to complete such a large amount of follow-up work alone. "When so many students are absent, it's hard for faculty to have the energy to connect with each family and understand the specific situation."
The intelligence of this system is impressive. When parents respond to the reasons for absence and provide relevant proof (such as doctor's certificate), the system will automatically update the absence status to "Waited for". If parents do not reply to messages continuously, or mention bullying, traffic and other issues during communication, the system will automatically mark and remind staff to follow up.
More importantly, the platform has also established a complete student attendance archive system, centrally managing all relevant text messages, calls and records, helping managers to promptly identify attendance problems and take intervention measures.
Kristie Medina, director of Raton Public Schools in New Mexico, has decided to introduce the system this month. She said: "The application of AI technology in attendance tracking and improvement will be a major breakthrough, especially in solving long-term absences. Through AI analysis, the district will be able to understand attendance patterns more deeply and identify high-risk students earlier," she said. and develop more effective interventions. "
Edia's AI tools provide a new idea for solving the problem of absenteeism among American students. Its efficient communication mechanism and intelligent data analysis functions are expected to help schools pay better attention to students, improve students' attendance, and ultimately promote students' academic progress. This technology can not only reduce the work burden of school staff, but more importantly, it can provide students with more timely and effective help and contribute to building a healthier educational environment.
