Hi, colleagues.

I am looking for recommendations of products to help us keep track and produce reports of attendance to SI sessions and other events. My office is a 1-person operation, so I'd love something that simple to set up and to keep up, and that allows for production of good reports related to usage, trends over time, etc.

Our University's tutoring center uses Accudemia, so that is one product I need to consider. Any feedback about Accudemia and how it might compare to other products will be appreciated.

In kindness,

Janielle

I am interested in this as well.

What do you use for scheduling as needed tutor appointments? Do you have an online system for providing information about SI and the group information (i.e. class, leader, room number, day/time, Zoom link)?

 

Thank you!

At Baylor we have the students who attend SI sign in using a program that the IT department developed for us. The SIL selects their name and types in what session they are having and then the students type in their ID numbers. We then get a list sent to us that has all of the data in it that we can then analyze and send out to whoever needs it. The SILs also each have their own Canvas page where they can upload worksheets, post their schedule, and communicate with the students who are signed up for the course. We receive a list of who is enrolled in the courses that have SIs at the beginning of the semester and again after add/drop that the SILs can copy into their Canvas in order to add the students.

Thanks,

Erica Fleming

Chris,
We allow the SI leaders to decide how much they wish to share with their students using their Canvas. Some leaders make their worksheets so that they aren't helpful without going to the sessions and others choose to not post at all and print the worksheets for the students. We also encourage out leaders to have an attendance requirement for test review material which ensures that students attend and keeps their test reviews from being overcrowded with students. All of this is up to the SIL though so that they can decide what works best for their students and the course they are working with. As for the attendance program it is accessible through a link that we have on our SI resources page for all of the leaders. They can access it from their own computer or the computer in their classroom. I hope this answers your questions!

Thanks,

Erica Fleming

Hi Erica,

I never thought about each leader having their own Canvas page. I may consider stealing that from you! A few questions:
  • If the entire class is added to the Canvas, what is your policy on sharing materials with students who do not attend SI sessions? 
  • You mentioned that IT created a sign-in program for you. Do your sessions take place in a designated location where there is a kiosk for this sign-in? Our sessions are spread around campus in different classrooms (space shortage), so is your sign-in method accessible if leaders brought a laptop to their session or used the classroom computer? 
Thanks,

Hello Chris,


You could look at Tutor Trak. Check out its features and see if it works for you. It is not free.

Hello Janielle,


In addition to checking to learn of Tutor Trak fits for you there might be another option.


I worked at one university that used the HR payroll portal they use for support staff (ADP payroll time clock). All universities have a payroll system set up already for hourly employees and once the students are entered in the system they can log in and out of each session. The SI supervisor checks the time at the end of the payroll period and signs off on the time. Payroll is automatically calculated with automatic deposit to the employees bank account. The hardest task is entering new students and deleting those that are no longer employed each semester.

There was a time not so long ago (maybe two years) when the security people with our IT division would not allow use of this platform on campus due to security liabilities.  That said, I’m not an IT guy; you may want to have someone who is check it out first.

 

Warmest regards,

José
