Utilizing Student Profile for Course Progression Record Keeping
Introduction
CounselMore's Student Profile feature offers a comprehensive solution for tracking and managing student course progression from as early as 8th grade. This tool not only facilitates detailed record-keeping and planning but also ensures seamless collaboration with high school counselors, demonstrating your dedication and professionalism. Here's how you can leverage this feature to build a student pipeline, set course goals, and maintain a clear record of your counseling scope of work, with the added convenience of exporting data to Google Drive.
Here are the steps to follow:
Step 1
Setting Up Course Progression in Student Profile:
Navigate to the "student profile" section (pencil icon). Enter Course Progression: Begin with the student's current grade level (as early as 8th grade) and input their courses, grades, and any notes related to their academic journey. This area allows you to map out a student's academic path, aligning with their high school's profile and recommended course progression.
Step 2
Exporting to Google Drive Seamless Integration:
With CounselMore's integration with Google Drive, you can easily export the course progression records for individual students. Version Control: As plans adjust, you can export new versions of the course progression. This ensures that you always have an up-to-date record of the student's academic plan, which is crucial for tracking progress and making informed adjustments.
Common Use Cases:
Tracking Counselor Scope of Work, Document Your Efforts: Use the course progression feature to track the scope of your counseling work. This includes the planning, adjustments, and guidance provided to each student throughout their high school journey. Showcase Your Commitment: Maintaining detailed records demonstrates your commitment to each student's success and your professional diligence in supporting their academic and career aspirations.
Building a Student Pipeline and Setting Course Goals Early Engagement:
Start engaging students as early as 8th grade to set the foundation for their high school academic journey.
