The Data Analytics for Student Success (DASS) team at UCT has dedicated several years to the development and enhancement of the ‘Know Your Course and Students’ (KYCS) reports. KYCS reports provide data analytics that give you a profile of your students and the historical performance of students on the course, before the course starts. Join us in this workshop to learn how to interpret and use the KYCS report to inform your teaching and learning approaches. This informative, interactive workshop will empower you to gain deeper insights into your courses and students. Using a few courses as cases, we will discuss and reflect on what we can learn about the needs of a particular student cohort based on the data and the implications for learning and teaching in particular contexts. The workshop is targeted at course convenors and lecturers.
