Dear All,
At departmental, faculty and university level there is increasing concern
about the issue of student attendance and consequently an interest in the
way this is handled at other institutions. Anecdotally, I have heard that at
some British universities non-attendance is penalised by mark reductions
and/or by the refusal to allow students to take examinations in the
non-attended module. We would be very grateful if some of you (out there)
could send us a brief outline of your practice in this regard. It might
consequently be the subject for further discussion within the mailing list
to establish what is the most appropriate (best) practice.
Thanks in advance and best wishes
Jeremy Leaman
