RISE & AI
Dr. Stacey MacKinnon of the University of Prince Edward Island transformed her classroom feedback process by integrating the RISE Model with AI through the Stemble platform. With 250+ first-year students, providing detailed, individualized feedback was challenging. The RISE Model—Reflect, Inquire, Suggest, Elevate—was embedded into the AI platform, enabling scalable, high-quality peer feedback. Students improved their critical thinking and feedback skills while receiving consistent, actionable insights.
RISE & The Red Cross
The International Federation of the Red Cross (IFRC) integrated the RISE Model into their Limitless program to mentor over 10,000 youth addressing local climate challenges worldwide. By adopting the RISE framework for meaningful feedback, which was translated into 11 languages, the IFRC supported the development of 100 innovation leads. These mentors used RISE to facilitate structured, impactful feedback, fostering idea development and collaboration across diverse cultural contexts.
RISE & Career Readiness
The University of South Florida (USF) adapted the RISE Model for meaningful feedback to enhance their Career Readiness badging program. By introducing an additional "Align" stage, creating the (A)RISE framework, USF trained peer coaches to provide structured, impactful feedback that aligned with the program's goal of developing eight essential career competencies. Over 3,000 students benefited from feedback that helped them articulate skills for interviews, resumes, and beyond.
