REAL WORLD PROBLEM

Let me give an example. As a faculty manager at DeVry, I once got a report that showed:

A title consisting of FacultyName and Course Name and the current day, say Feb $4,2024.$

The detailed data was in rows in a spreadsheet organized like this:

Student Name$\_\_\_\_$Last Date Active in Canvas$\_\_\_\_$DaysInactiveinCAnvas$\_\_$Grade$\_\_\_$LastDateContactedByFaculty

Smith, Brian$\_\_\_\_\_\_$Feb$/1/2024\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_2\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_$C$\_\_\_\_\_\_$Feb$/3/2024$

etc....

How might you use this information to help students stay active in their course and prevent attendance attendance dismissals due to student inactivity for more than $6$ days? Think about additional columns you could calculate or a decision rule that would help the faculty manager use the information effectively.
