THE SOFTWARE DESIGNED TO IDENTIFY AT-RISK STUDENTS

DISTRIBUTE PSYCHOMETRIC QUESTIONNAIRES

Several questionnaires are distributed to collect students’ perceptions about various dimensions of their personal and school lives.

USE A RESEARCH-BASED TOOL

To develop DDS, we used the tools and results of the work of university researchers as a foundation for our work.

BENEFIT FROM OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH CTREQ

The Centre de transfert pour la réussite éducative du Québec (CTREQ) and GRICS worked in partnership to digitize the forms and data collection process.

BETTER IDENTIFY POTENTIAL DROPOUTS IN YOUR SCHOOL

SEVERAL DIMENSIONS COVERED

Factors studied include the school situation, the family and learning environment, the life quality at school and the student’s interests, feelings and behaviour.

Different types of dropout

Answers to the questionnaires can point to a specific type of potential dropout: low interest or motivation, behavioural problems, covert antisocial behaviour, depression.

Secondary school clientele

Screening is used exclusively for secondary school students (aged 12 to 18).

SECURED DATA

All data collected is accessible on the web via a secure link.

Practical and convenient

Available online, DDS questionnaires are easy to complete and use. Simply provide students with the link so that they can answer the questionnaire.

Instant results

Results are available as soon as all the students have answered the questionnaire. DDS will help you identify students at risk of dropping out and understand why they are at risk.
