About the NetTutor™ Service Types • Type I - Homework Help • Students choose to either submit a live question or an offline question. • Tutor reviews the question, then works with the student to help the student “get it.” • Students should come to the session with a specific question about an assignment (i.e., where they are “stuck”), and not with general, open ended questions (“I don’t get it”). • Available 24/7; live tutor hours vary by subject, and can scale to meet large demand. • Type II - Paper Review • Students choose to join a live chat with the tutor, or submit their paper for offline review. • Tutor hosts a live chat room where relevant topics are discussed. • Tutor will review papers offline, giving students an additional set of review/feedback. • Available 24/7; live tutor hours vary by subject, and can scale to meet large demand.

  10. About the NetTutor™ Schedule • LSI estimates that in order for a tutor to fully answer a student’s question, between 5-20 minutes should be spent with the student on-line (an average of 3-5 consecutive questions answered per hour). • Should peak hours require additional tutoring support, LSI will reshuffle the tutoring schedule to accommodate as best as can be done. Additional tutorial hours can be added to meet customer needs.

  11. Statistics and Reporting • LSI will provide detailed tutoring usage reports, including the ability to routinely refer to an online system that provides up-to-the-minute details. These reports will indicate when tutors were online, how many questions were submitted, and the average length of time spent answering a question. • Summary information along with details in a specific session is also available. This database is updated in real time, and made available either via e-mail attachment or URL posting.
