Mapie is a technological service focused on the prevention of the risk of early school failure and dropout.
It monitors the path of all students throughout the school year and gives early warning of risk profiles through alerts. With this information, it is safer to elaborate diagnoses and implement early interventions to prevent school failure trajectories.

Monitors the student’s risk profile based on scientific criteria.
Mapie was developed by researchers from the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of the University of Coimbra, and since its conception it has been guided by tested scientific criteria, which guarantee the robustness of the results it presents. Risk assessment takes into account:
The ABC risk model
(from early warning system by Balfanz and collaborators)
Monitors the student’s school results: Attendance, Behavior and Course performance,
Sociodemographic indicators
It analyzes the information presented as robust by cientific investigations in identifying dropout risk.

Mapie was developed by researchers from the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of the University of Coimbra, and since its conception it has been guided by tested scientific criteria, which guarantee the robustness of the results it presents. Risk assessment takes into account three factors:
The ABC risk model
(from early warning system by Balfanz and collaborators)
Monitors the student’s school results: Attendance, Behavior and Course performance,
Health
Assessment of some health indicators associated to students' school failure and dropout.
Sociodemographic indicators
It analyzes the information presented as robust by cientific investigations in identifying dropout risk.
Supports teachers' work
The information technologies are nowadays familiar instruments in the teachers’ work. Mapie is an upgrade to the school management online services, allowing to capitalize and enhance the performance of the already installed platforms and, consequently, improvment of the educational tasks
Full use of the service does not add any workload to the teachers. Mapie works with existing data in the systems of school clusters and from it generates visual alerts, signaling students at risk of failure.
It's like having a radar installed that monitors a whole territory, which on the one hand, frees teachers from tiresome control work and on the other hand, offers them robust insights for decision-making process, whether it be in preparation of diagnoses or to set up interventions programms necessary for students' success.

Shares information and articulates procedures.
Preventing school failure does not depend on just one factor. The more the phenomenon is known, the more evident the need for different educational actors to be involved in an effective strategy becomes evident.
That is why it is so important that everyone has the same information to make diagnoses and articulate measures. Mapie, in addition to producing quality information about school failure scenarios, it allows access to these results to several stakeholders: teachers, class directors, school directors, school group directors, Commissions for the Protection of Children and Young People (CPCJ) or educational technicians from local authorities.
The transparency of information, however, is not incompatible with security. Mapie guarantees maximum security in data protection, through different levels of access, assigned according to the user's profile.

Mapie generates early detection alerts for the risks of failure and dropping out of school which, in practice, translate into several benefits for all stakeholders in the educational community.
For the students and families
Mapie analyses the most important failure risk indicators along the school trajectory of all students. From the most obvious to the most invisible risk. This means early detection of failure risk situations and, consequently, more opportunities for more students to be identified and receive early interventions with greater probability of good results.
For the teachers
Mapie is like a radar that continuously monitors and analyzes students' risk indicators. By generating early warnings, it reinforces teachers' attention to eminent situations and objectively supports their decisions, whether in the development of diagnoses or the implementation of interventions.
For municipalities and communities
The role of municipalities in defining local and regional educational strategies is increasingly important. Education has long been more than just a matter for "schools" and the intervention of municipalities and other local actors has shown positive results with their involvement. Mapie is an important instrument in this concerted strategy for an increasingly better education.
With Mapie, doing better costs less
Evidence by the results obtained in the 102 School Groups, from 61 municipalities from north to south of the country where Mapie is already implemented: 1281 less students in retention and a corresponding saving of 5.65 million Euros.
