Purpose

To enable institutions to configure Student Contact Types for use in the Electronic Rollbook.

The form will enable the definition of Contact Type details including ID and Description, Participation Indicator, Closed Indicator and Comments.
The Contact Types will be configured so that they are all SSF available and as such enable the selection of a pre-defined list of Contact Types in the creation of a Rollbook in Staff Connect.

The definition of a Contact Type may vary between Institutions, but generally the Contact Type will be used as a reference guide as to how contact has been made outside of classes between an Institution and a student. The Contact Type will be used as evidence of participation, pre-determined by the Institution.

An example of a contact type might be:
STD-PH-PC - STUDENT INITIATED PHONE CALL REGARDING PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

For further information on Rollbook processes, see the entries for Rollbook in Staff Connect.

The Contact Type block contains:

• Contact Type
• Description
• Participation check box
• Closed check box
