Coursework return

StudentsOnline now includes details about courseworks for each module. Included in this information are the dates for hand-in by students and the anticipated date of return of assessed work 20 workings days hence. We have included a new feature which it is hoped will save time for students and get feedback to students more quickly. Against each element, there is the date at which marked coursework is actually ready for collection by the students. We plan to use this data to create a display of the new courseworks ready for collection and we are looking into the possibility of using the SMS system to advise students on a module when coursework is ready for collection. We think this will be a major advance on last year's system in which students had to go to N block to see a list of returned work.
