HAPPY STUDENTS WITH SMS ALERTS
WHAT WE CAN DO NOW
My house is flooded,
I won’t be in today.
Can you notify the
students, please?
I’ll put a notice on myBU and
post one on each lecture theatre
and seminar room that you
are timetabled in
That’ll take most of
this morning!
Result: Poor NSS score
for timetabling & communication
HOW IT USED TO BE IN THE OLD DAYS
…and I waited an
hour for the bus.
I could have
had a lie in, if
only I’d
known
I’ll go to the
library and work
on my dissertation
instead
I’m ill and I won’t
be in today.
Can you notify the
students, please?
Due to staff indisposition,
today’s lecture is
Cancelled.
I’ll SMS the
students and let
them know
PROBLEM
SOLUTION
Academic involvement
EVOLUTION
The Economist, P32, this
week would be relevant
background reading for the
exam. I’ll text the students to
let them know
In my final year, I had to juggle a job with my
studies. Staff were very good at notifying me
of changes to the teaching schedule
Lecturers and admin
staff always let us
know what was going
on.
Result: Top NSS score for
timetabling & communication
WHAT NEXT?
Ooops! Dental
appointment
tomorrow first
thing. Will have
to postpone
seminar. Note:
SMS to students
SMS by
seminar group
