Early Intervention Starts with Better Attendance Insights

LECTURELOGGER FOR ADVISORS

Academic advisors are on the front lines of student success.

But without clear, real-time visibility into class attendance, it’s hard to know when students are starting to fall behind. LectureLogger changes that by giving advisors the tools they need to monitor attendance patterns, identify at-risk students early, and collaborate more effectively across campus.

Spot Attendance Issues Before They Become Academic Problems

Our "Last Attended" tracking makes it easy to sort students by recency of attendance, helping advisors:

  • Identify disengaged students sooner

  • Prioritize outreach based on data

  • Avoid mid-semester surprises

With our semester-based tracking feature, advisors can also view attendance percentages by week, month, or the full term to better guide conversations and support plans.

Search and Monitor Students in One Place

Advisors can search all of their assigned students and instantly view attendance across every course they're enrolled in. Whether supporting first-year students, athletes, or students on academic probation, advisors can see:

  • A centralized view of student attendance records

  • Real-time check-in history

  • Course-level breakdowns of present, excused, and unexcused absences

Flag Excessive Absences Automatically

If a student is approaching or exceeding the number of allowed absences in any course, advisors will see it in their dashboard. This helps advisors:

  • Intervene before it's too late

  • Support professors in policy enforcement

  • Track patterns across multiple courses

Star Students for Continuous Monitoring

Need to keep an eye on a specific student? Advisors can "star" students to surface them on their dashboard and quickly track those who require ongoing check-ins, outreach, or additional support.

Empower Students with Better Communication

When students are nearing absence limits, they receive notifications to help them adjust their behavior before reaching academic consequences.

It’s one more way LectureLogger keeps students informed and engaged — with less manual work for advisors.
