Progression Message Rules
Progression message rules can be used to construct the Rule messages displayed in PRGF6600, when a student has not made satisfactory progress in their studies.
The message is actually a string of characters returned by the rule, and may be made up of strings of text concatenated with values appropriate for this Student Course Attempt.
e.g. A Progression rule ‘Course GPA falls below 4’ applies to a particular student who has a course GPA of 3.
In this case an appropriate Progression message might be:
Progression rule messages are maintained in RULF2001.
A rule that would generate such a message would be:
`Student has gained a course GPA of `+ACTUAL_GPA+`. Required GPA for this course is ` +MINIMUM_GPA+`.`
In this case, appropriate values for ACTUAL_GPA and MINIMUM_GPA are inserted in the string of text returned by the rule.
