A Collaborative Whitepaper to enhance student attendance

We are excited to share a collaborative effort that delves into student attendance and engagement. The whitepaper 6 Reasons Why Students Don't Attend Your (Online) Lecture and Strategies to Enhance Student Attendance is the result of collaboration between Teaching and Learning Services and Teaching Academy and reviews involving teaching and learning experts, educators, and students. This resource aims to empower educators with insights to create an environment that fosters active participation, ensuring students derive maximum benefit from their academic journey. 

At the core of this whitepaper lie six impactful interventions to address common student concerns: 

Demonstrate the relevance of lectures to your students’ learning process

#1

Design lectures that support the learning process

#2

Create lectures that are easy to follow

#3

Incorporate different student needs

#4
