I am encouraged by the the example of calling a student. I have found email interventions to be a “shot in the dark,” not knowing if the student even reads my intervention. I remember early in the development of FERPA guidelines that making phone calls was discouraged, but I appreciate Andy suggesting we do so. I am curious if we have or could have whole-class texting, or selected group texting that students could sign up for so I could offer students the option to receive automatic “Remember to do your homework” text reminders.

I found this post very useful. I need more help like this, showing exactly how I can go in and track a student’s progress. The example was very interesting as the successful student had two fewer logins, but was still ahead of the game in terms of grades.
Right, we cannot see the blank looks in an online classroom, but those looks are out there in the form of blank data, perhaps.
Thank you.
