What a year for Xello! As we close out the 2023-24 school year, we wanted to review all of the exciting updates we\u2019ve rolled out in the past ten months. From new college planning tools to additional elementary Missions, Xello has continued to deliver product updates for every stage of a students\u2019 future readiness journey.<\/span><\/p>\n

We know that educators are already pressed for time, which is why Xello introduced new tools to help streamline communications and processes. We also care deeply about student engagement (it\u2019s their futures, after all!) and created even more personalized offerings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These features are more than just bells and whistles; instead, they were built intentionally to drive educator efficiency and student engagement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Below is a recap of the updates launched in the 2023-2024 school year (plus a sneak peek of what\u2019s to come!) to help students and educators enhance their college and career planning experience.<\/span><\/p>\n

Key Feature Releases<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Dashboard Feed<\/span><\/a>: (Grades 6-12)<\/span><\/h3>\n

Here at Xello we\u2019re passionate about student engagement, which is why we introduced the Dashboard Feed. It delivers a personalized and immersive experience to help students research careers, colleges and life lessons.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s as familiar as their favorite social media feed but 100% career and college focused.\u00a0 Dashboard Feed is the first thing they see when they log into Xello and offers new and relevant content based on their interests and goals every time they log on.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Each video, article, and interview is reviewed and curated by our team of editors to ensure interesting, focused content\u00a0 is delivered to the students\u2019 feed based on the topics they follow, as well as the careers and schools they save. From architecture to STEM, finance to human services, or even practical life skills like budgeting and interview preparation, the Dashboard Feed empowers students to explore their passions and expand their horizons.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And an added piece of fun? The ability to react to content via emoji.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Why It Matters:<\/b> Student motivation and engagement are critical when it comes to future planning. With the introduction of Dashboard Feed, Xello encourages student-led exploration by consistently offering content that sparks students\u2019 interest and inspires them to discover possibilities for their future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
