Cochise College Selects Blue Text Analytics to Enhance Teaching and Learning

Montreal, Canada – October 26, 2015 – Cochise College extends its use of Blue from course evaluations and surveys to text analytics in order to further improve the teaching and learning experience.

As a Blue user since 2013, Cochise College will leverage Blue Text Analytics (BTA) to increase student engagement by making sense of qualitative comments. With BTA, the institution can quickly process and analyze open-ended responses and convert them into meaningful themes and quantifiable results. This will enable the college to discover hundreds of new analysis points resulting in a comprehensive view of student input. Using Blue and BTA together, Cochise College is ready to drive continuous improvement by acting on all student feedback.

Founded in 1964, Cochise College was one of the first community colleges in Arizona. Spread over two campuses and three centers, the institution provides high-quality associate-level education, professional development, and workforce training. Serving about 14,000 students each year, the college’s mission is to provide accessible education that leads to constructive citizenship, meaningful careers, and lifelong learning.
