Keeping on top of student attendance and assessment results will limit a student falling behind. Working closely with the tutor is also beneficial.
good course
Within learning support we monitor and support students to reduce the amount of absences.
interesting
Great information through out the video and how tutors can progress on the VLE.
Having time to do this can be an issue.
I found the descriptions and naming of the four types of contingency planning quite confusing
I think that it's a rally good strategy to be able to provide for learners who fall behind or miss classes, however, in reality, students are marked down as absent or as a non-attendance and registers do not allow for difference; this can have a negative impact on learners who are trying to improve and engage.
Quite useful but common sense for most teachers really. We might have different names for the "Just In....." names but we follow the same process.
Good
Technology certainly can play a vital role in tracking and resolving attendance issues.
Useful
Thanks
.
Very useful.
Strange terminology!
Poor use of key terms/definitions (just in time...) too subjective as to what these terms mean. Very confusing module.
Sensible content but I couldn't agree with the criteria match exercise.
The 4 models of 'jut' are a useful way of putting focus on different support strategies.
I got really confused by the language of the questions.
Good detail on what you can do to support learning and hopefully avoid attendance issues
Good range overview and nice range of options. The solutions offered do assume a certain degree of digital policy and vision within the organisation that might not always be available
ssss
A useful summary of some important information on how to support students. The links at the bottom of the page are well worth investigating.
The 'Just In..' idea makes a lot of sense. Useful video in parts.
