Learning Enhancement Checklist (LEC)


OVERVIEW

The Learning Enhancement Checklist (LEC) is a counselling initiative tailored towards individual as well as group-based assessment and intervention services. The LEC can be used remedially as well as developmentally by South African Universities and FET Colleges alike. The 4-phased programme begins with a computerised assessment and culminates in a personalised success plan for each student.

Value Proposition/Benefits

The LEC serves as an early warning intervention strategy through which faculties can support their at–risk students and thereby increase retention and throughput.

For institutional stakeholders, the programme can:

  • provide a needs assessment profile of a particular group upon request.
  • provide a profile regarding financial needs that can be shared with support services e.g. Financial Aid,
  • inform policy formulation regarding language issues.
  • make a meaningful contribution towards increased retention and throughput.

For counsellors, the expected outcomes of the programme are:

  • greater insight into the holistic nature of student issues.
  • increased manageability of large groups in terms of assessment and feedback.
  • shortened time spent on intake sessions.
  • increased relevance of workshops on offer to faculties.
  • being able to work therapeutically with academically-related issues.
  • witnessing a shift from paralysis to action-oriented student-initiated behaviour.
