Inspiration
There was a common platform that could provide all the capabilities that schools and employers seek at no cost. The platform could also help make students into mavins: (noun), {plural} experts based on having gained the combined knowledge of others.

Imagine If...
There is an app that has courses. A Student lands on their course page
26
Imagine If...
A video pops up as they go to the course page to check
complete this video to get to the assignment. The video is about a how skills are applied at a real world job, with an employer from the region, featuring the valuable products and services offered to customers, and which offers career path guidance to students interested in that job?
27
Imagine If...
The video had a communication question selected by the teacher but simulating employers’ real-world expectations for employees. Requires fair, unbiased data about each student-user’s will and ability to comprehend and communicate about the subject.
28
Imagine If...
After answering the communication question, popup adds a collaboration question, asking if the student likes the job, career, pathway, or employer featured in the video; preferences are stored to their record so their counselors can reference when for EDP-planning.
29
Imagine If...
Teachers could also develop popups after each class lecture to test students on what they learned that day
feedback to see how well the student grasped the day’s lesson. Imagine if the responses went into a stream on students’ records that they could keep for life.
30
Imagine If...
Place your screenshot here
These pop ups autonomously provide unbiased scoring around the Fundamental Four, creating an objective measure
behaviors (apart from academic grades), which employers also care about.
31
Imagine If...
We reward students through minnow coins so they can purchase products through a .com which also shares with students how STEAM skills and jobs are involved in the products they wish to purchase.
32
Imagine If...
Counselors and teachers could evaluate how well students are applying these fundamental four traits and intervene faster to provide support.
33
Imagine If...
Counselors could share videos to students on how to handle bullying, mental health and wellness issues, assessments, or emotional abuse to ensure they are safe and healthy enough to engage in coursework, develop skills, and fairly be evaluated on their demonstration of the fundamental four behavior traits.
34
Imagine If...
All of this information would go on students’ extended profiles alongside their grades and competencies that counselors, parents, and teachers could monitor and reference.
35
Imagine If...
This information can then be integrated into the EDP-building process for middle school and high school, so students can confidently select the right courses to match their interests while also meeting the new State of Michigan statutory requirements.
36
Imagine If...
The whole educational process should be engaging, fun, and exciting; virtual reality videos really help students experience the real-world environment of work more vividly.
37
Imagine If...

Not imagining anymore...MiGPS is a roadmap created to ensure a better future for Michigan students, teachers, counselors, principals, administrators, employers and citizens that is free to use and meets the state’s new EDP-requirements.
