The Office of Undergraduate Education in partnership with the Office of Information Technology continues to improve and refine the undergraduate course alert, an important component in helping students stay on track academically.
The course alert process aligns with the university's strategic priority听of creating a common student-centered approach to teaching and learning and aims to improve retention and graduation rates for students. When students are alerted early in the semester, they have the time to take action, whether that means seeking additional instructor help or guidance, engaging a tutor or modifying their schedule accordingly.
鈥淚 encourage all undergraduate instructors to support their students by participating in the course alert process,鈥� said Daryl Maeda, dean and vice provost of undergraduate education. 鈥淲hen instructors submit a form well before the drop deadline, it gives students a much better chance to turn around their academic performance and stay enrolled in the class.鈥�
Instructors of undergraduate lecture, seminar, studio, lab and workshop courses across campus are encouraged to complete a feedback form on student performance in their classes. They can submit alerts more than once a term, but only once per student. Instructors are encouraged to submit their alerts early and well before the drop deadline for the term to help students improve their academic performance in the class.听
