We’ve developed some new webpages for you looking at ‘Academic Progress’ and ‘Support for Students’. The purpose of the webpages are to provide you with a clear understanding of the issues involved and awareness of the support structures that are available.
Our main question is how can the University support you to be successful at Flinders.
Academic Progress
The Academic Progress webpages are on the Student website under My Course, and provide information for you on
- How you can progress through your topics and courses
- Improved communication of university processes
- An outline of support mechanisms in place to help you along your progression journey.
This aligns to the recently updated Student Progress policy and procedures, and there are also links to the Support for Students policy, Student Conduct policy and the Assessment policy that all impact on academic progress.
There is information on Topic Level engagement, particularly looking at early engagement prior to Census date, and also Course Level engagement.
There are 5 levels of progression outlined in the Student Progress policy and procedures for you to be aware of.
The webpages guide you through each level, including:
- What each level means
- How the University will communicate with you
- What you need to do at each level
- How the University supports you at each stage
- What continued progression issues may mean for you
Support for Students
The Support for Students webpages are on the Student website under Support and Services, and they bring together key information on how Flinders supports your success including:
- Communication campaigns
- Touchpoints
- Referral processes
- Support interventions
They also provide information on Flinders University’s ‘student success’ mission.
