The SI (Supplemental Instruction) Comparison report is used to compare student visits to course grade. The SI programs primarily focus on peer-assisted study sessions for historically difficult courses. This report is intended to provide information based on one specific course and section at a time. You may also configure this report to search multiple courses at one time which will allow you to view a broad scope of students visited versus students who did not visit your center and the GPA received.
Although this report was created for SI programs, any institution uploading grades to their Trac System can use its function of comparing student visits to course grades.

Course GPA:
For complex grade values (not beginning with an A, B, C, D or F), define the value of each grade using the ‘Passing Grade Definition’ and ‘Non-Passing Grades’ fields. Otherwise, the numeric value of each grade will be assigned by the first letter.
Passing/Non-Passing Grade Definition: List the grades and only use commas to separate each grade. This can be as simple as: A,B,C,D OR A+,A,A-,B+,B,B-
If grades are more complex, define their numeric value.
XA+=4,RA+=4,A+=4,XA=4,RA=4,A=4,XA-=4,RA-=4,A-=4,
XB+=3,RB+=3,B+=3,XB=3,RB=3,B=3,XB-=3,RB-=3,B-=3,
XC+=2,RC+=2,C+=2,XC=2,RC=2,C=2,XC-=2,RC-=2,C-=2,
XD+=1,RD+=1,D+=1,XD=1,RD=1,D=1,XD-=1,RD-=1,D-=1
Withdraw Codes: List withdraw codes, for example: W,WA,I.
Addl Unattended Sessions: If there were SI sessions that no one attended, then put that number here.
Affects of SI on Visits Breakdown: List the total visit groupings for the report. For example: 0,1-4,5-7,8 or +
