Description:
Published in the 2004 annual ICS conference proceedings is a paper by John Corby of the University of Central England regarding attendance and attainment. In this paper he describes the data collection and analysis of the attendance and attainment statistics for a single module within Level 1. This paper seeks to validate his findings by repeating the analysis at Durham University, but in this case across all modules within Level 2 using data collected on attendance and attainment over a five year period. The results show a strong correlation between attendance and attainment significant to the 0.05 level.
