Removal from class: inform the student office automatically

Built by Edusign · Cheating and removals

When an instructor removes a student from class, the student office is informed automatically. Nobody needs to report it manually, and the student's record is complete.

    SubjectRemoval from class – [STUDENT_FIRSTNAME] [STUDENT_LASTNAME]

    Hello, [STUDENT_FIRSTNAME] [STUDENT_LASTNAME] was removed from a class on [ALERT_DATE]. The session details are available in Edusign. Please contact the instructor to get the context before speaking to the student.

Why turn on this alert

The instructor records the removal in Edusign during the class. Without an alert, the information stays on the session sheet and the student office only finds out by chance.

  • The programme manager is informed the next morning.
  • They get the context from the instructor before seeing the student.
  • The student's record keeps a trace of the removal.
