NoteService Accommodations
There are several options for securing a NoteSupplier. The DRC student and the instructor should decide on which option to utilize:
- The DRC student may choose a NoteSupplier.
- Instructor makes an announcement at the start of class or sends a class email (do not identify the student) that a NoteSupplier is needed for this class. A script is provided for your convenience in the NoteService Packet (page 2) under “Instructor Responsibilities”.
- Instructor can recruit a NoteSupplier by observing students' classroom traits (e.g. attendance, listening skills, participation, quiz/test scores). Once you have identified a likely recruit approach that student and request their assistance in filling a vital need for your class.
- Instructor may supply student with copies of his/her own course notes.
- Instructor and DRC student periodically meet and review the DRC student's own notes for appropriateness or missing information.
- If you are still having trouble securing a NoteSupplier, contact the DRC.
Instructions for recording and supplying notes are included for the NoteSupplier in the NoteService Packet on pages 3 & 4 (NoteSupplier's Job Description).
Once a NoteSupplier has been designated, completed pages 5 & 6 of the NoteService Packet should be returned to the DRC immediately.
The DRC student is responsible for attending class on a regular basis. Having a NoteSupplier does not excuse him/her from attending class. If the NoteSupplier misses class for any reason, he/she is still responsible for providing a set of notes for that day. If attendance becomes an issue or you have any questions, please contact the DRC at 392-8565x200 or noteservice@dso.ufl.edu
The DRC prefers only one designated NoteSupplier per class. In the event that there is more than one student in a class requiring a NoteSupplier, follow the instructions in the NoteService Packet at the bottom of page 2.
