1The business problem
Are you a head of department or student services lead?
Educators often spend a large part of their week answering routine questions and handling admin.
High Educator Admin
Routine queries and basic feedback take time away from teaching.
2What we would advise
We would design learning assistants for routine questions and admin, with staff in control of academic judgement.
- Student Journey Mapping. Map the main student touchpoints and agree what to measure.
3The proposed solution
| Capability | What it does | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Intelligent Assistant | Answers routine student questions at any hour and passes anything else to staff. | To evaluate |
| Final decision | Staff member responds | Human decision |
4Starting point and aim
| Area | Typical starting point | What we would work towards |
|---|---|---|
| Support response | Depends on staff availability | Prompt answers to routine questions |
5Evidence and how we would measure it
This is an illustrative approach, so there are no results to report. In a real engagement we agree the measures first and report against your own baseline.
- MeasureResponse times and staff time on routine queries against your own baseline
- ReviewResults reviewed with you each term
Expert insight
The aim is to give academic staff more time for teaching and student support.
