  1. How should Student Management evolve? A personal view

  2. Original UTS vision – Enrolment 100% student self managed via web Students should get plan on admission, enrol year by year in the subjects they needed then automatically graduate without the need for them to speak to anyone in administration and without anyone in administration having to lift a finger. If the student’s or the Faculty’s circumstances changed the student’s plan would be changed following consultation with the student. Students free to expand and choose. All control via plan and requisites

  3. Course as approved Structure on SM Student Study Plan

  4. What performance criteria should be used to evaluate a student self-managed enrolment system ? Convenient for students Low admin overheads High integrity

  5. Structure of the presentation Part 1: Evolution to improve performance Student convenience Staff administrative overheads Part 2: Evolution to get a better return on investment Better resource utilisation Better integration

  6. Part 1: Evolution to improve performance Student convenience Staff administrative overheads Part 2: Evolution to get a better return on investment Better resource utilisation Better integration

  7. I am a student about to on-line enrol….. I need all the information necessary to make the decision The information needs to be organised for me I need to be able to do what-if’s I want the system to respond quickly I want an “undo” button I don’t want to go down blind alleys I want to be able to put the process on hold and resume

  8. Log-on Play Save Log-out Log-on Un-do Play Commit Log-out

  9. I am a student about to on-line enrol….. I need all the information necessary to make the decision The information needs to be organised for me I need to be able to do what-if’s I want the system to respond quickly I want an “undo” button I don’t want to go down blind alleys I want to be able to put the process on hold and resume

  10. Course structure What the student must do in order to qualify for graduation (applies to all students) Course Program The year and semester that it is assumed the student will enrol in each component of the course Student imprint The choices that student has made and the subjects passed to date

  11. Getting the information the student needs to the student Course Structure The display student sees when web enrolling Course Program Student imprint

  12. Student imprint Course structure Course Program

  13. Where SM is at present Course structure can have course program information added – but only one There is no limit to the number of course templates No validation between structure and template Program information ephemeral Study Plan, Enrollable subjects, option choices in three different places Where SM needs to be Course structure simply defines completion rules – no program information Course template generator that forces consistency with structure Integrated graphic display

  14. Vision Student action Structure Covers display at each level of expansion Validated Program Template for Cohort Foundation Study Plan Web display for cohort Study Plan as seen by student

  15. What is meant by a study package template creation tool (to ensure validity of template)

  16. Year 1 Autumn* Year 1 Spring Year 2 Autumn Course program (Autumn commencing full time) Course structure

  17. Year 1 Autumn Year 1 Spring Year 2 Autumn Course program (Autumn commencing full time) Course structure

  18. Year 1 Autumn Year 1 Spring Year 2 Autumn Subjects can only be pasted into spots where requisites met Course program (Autumn commencing full time) Course structure

  19. Year 1 Spring Year 2 Autumn Year 2 Spring Course program (Spring commencing full time) Course structure

  20. Year 1 Spring Year 2 Autumn 49307 Year 2 Spring 49265 49262 49263 Recommendation (Spring commencing full time) Course structure

  21. Combining the course completion rules and the course program in a single graphical display

  22. Year 1 Autumn Year 1 Spring 48001 Legal Aspects 48005 Modelling 48002 IT support 48006 Analysis 48003 Theory 48007 Case Study 48004 Practice 48008 Project Assume course with no choice, four equal load subjects a semester for full time students over four years (This is just a starting example – more realistic courses will be addressed later) The course could be displayed as an 8x4 array. Each row giving the subjects recommended for that semester ie they are offered, they will not clash, they are free of requisite impediments and they “open” subjects that will be recommended in following semesters. Example for FT students commencing in Autumn

  23. 48001 Legal Aspects 48002 IT support 48003 Theory 48004 Practice 48001 Legal Aspects 48002 IT support 48003 Theory 48004 Practice Example for PT students commencing in Autumn Year 1 Autumn Year 1 Spring Year 2 Autumn Year 2 Spring These diagrams give information about the course structure and program but not the student’s imprint

  24. What about student imprint? Suppose the course involves a choice of major and has some optional subjects where any subject in a specified list is acceptable Over time the display should evolve to capture choices made (this already happens in e-student – what is new is that course program Information is preserved) Example – student doing program full time commencing in Autumn semester

  27. So far we have covered the choice capture component in the web display seen by students of student imprint What about progression? Suppose expansion has taken place. Student is give a different display for each semester of enrolment In this presentation colour coding is used to convey status of each subject in practice it would need to conform with useability standards. Red: have not met requisite Grey: Not offered that semester Yellow: Available for choosing Black: Subject has been passed or exempted

Why do study plans need to change? – a taxonomy Faculty induced change Faculty permission required (eg major choice) New version of subject Add or delete subject from options list Structure change eg core subject substitution Version phased out – customised transition needed Student induced change Choice change or transfer Change of status eg new RPL Substitution or additional option choice
