Working with Notetaking Services
While working with notetaking services, it is the student's reponsibility to:
- Provide SSWD and your notetaker or CART provider with at least 24-hour notice prior to the beginning of any class that will be missed. Notetakers and CART providers are only scheduled for classes in which you are in attendance.
- Inform SSWD and your notetaker or CART provider of any changes to class schedules, including course drops/adds, classroom changes or additional review sessions, etc.
- Communicate with your notetaker or CART provider if changes to the notes are necessary to improve your educational success.
- If, after working with your notetaker, you continue to have concerns regarding the notes you are receiving, the SSWD Coordinator should be informed.
It is the notetaker or real-time captionist's responsibility to:
- Be punctual to obtain best possible seating and set up equipment without interruption to the class.
- Inform SSWD of any absence requiring a substitute notetaker and make arrangements for that class to be covered.
- Inform SSWD of any changes to their class schedule and availability.
- Listen to the student when they describe how they would like to receive their notes and ensure that the notes are meeting the student's needs.
