Status CodesAll directly student related records within Paradigm should be assigned a status code from a defined list of available statuses that reflects the best known state of that record. Using a single field to track the overall status of a record greatly simplifies reporting. It is strongly recommended that the status field is maintained as the student progresses through their studies as part of the overall student life-cycle.
Further details regarding the default system status codes and their recommended use please refer to this page: Search, Add and Edit a Status Item

back to top Grade Points Calculations
The acronym GPA stands for grade point average, which in turn requires the allocation of grade points to each unit enrolment outcome. Specifically, this involves allocating a grade point value (e.g. 5) to a specific letter score (e.g. credit). Australian providers differ on the exact grade point scale to use, but the process is always the same.
For comparison, click here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academic_grading_in_Australia.
Paradigm implements GPA in a way that reflects industry practice. As per the above link institutions may define their own GPA scale by adding the relevant information to the grading schema defined in the interface under SYSTEM > Search Grade Type. Refer to this Knowledge Base article for more details: Search, Add and Edit Grade Items.
We expect providers to assign a GPA value to fail and fail equivalent grades.

Weighted Average Mark CalculationsThe acronym WAM stands for Weighted Average Mark. The Weighted Average Mark (WAM) is a more precise measurement of your student’s academic performance than the grade point average. This is because it base the calculation on your actual marks (eg: 78, 63, 50 and so on) and the year level of each base unit. Therefore, the WAM is the average mark you achieve across all completed units in a course, including any failed and repeated units. The WAM is out of 100. WAM is weighted according to the: credit point value defined at each base unit; year level weighting defined at each base unit; weighting level defined at each base unit (Note: If no weighting level is defined then the system assumes a weighting of one); and The value you entered into the published result field on the unit enrolment must have a corresponding value in the grade point field on the Paradigm grade schema (System > Edit Grade item).

The Course Enrolment details have been saved for this student and should now appear in the COURSE ENROLMENT LIST section near the top of the page. You can either click on the Edit Details option in the side menu, or move down the page to the COURSE DETAILS section, to complete all further details which are required for government reporting. |
SCHEDULED PROGRAM LIST section
In the updated version of Paradigm, this section is now changed to SCHEDULED PROGRAM LIST where all the course(s) being offered or scheduled are listed with an ADD COURSE button for each row. This section has now an option to enrol on a Scheduled Program and its linked Scheduled Units, see Scheduled Program - Scheduled Units.
NOTE Creating a course enrolment record via this section (SCHEDULED PROGRAM LIST) will result in a course enrolment record that inherits the fields defined on the scheduled program (as created under Course > Course Offers > Add New Course Offer). It is very important that you check and verify the fields under the COURSE DETAILS section, edit or update the required fields which are true to the student’s circumstances, and save the course enrolment to apply the changes. Once this course enrolment has been created, any further changes to the scheduled program will NOT be reflected, or in any way change the values of the course enrolment record that you just added. The changes made to the scheduled program will only reflect to new enrolments (enrolments after the changes to the scheduled program record has been made).
 Image Added After clicking the ADD COURSE button, you have the option to check and edit the COURSE DETAILS section, just below the SCHEDULED PROGRAM LIST section (edit fields that are relevant to the enrolled student’s circumstances) and just click the SAVE COURSE ENROLMENT button to apply the changes.
