My question is for those who keep track of tutor student hours using the
LitPro database.  Here is a little background:  We know if a tutor meets
with two students at one time that we record their hours separately for each
student.  For example, they meet for 8 hours one month, this would equal 16
total hours for that tutor, 8 hours for each student.  Question:  If a tutor
has a group of 10 students and meets for 8 hours a month, do you give that
tutor a total of 80 hours of instruction, or only 8 hours?  As many of you
probably know LitPro's group menu option doesn't record the cumulative
student hours, so as it stands in the database the tutor would only receive
8 hours.  However, this doesn't appear to accurately reflect the tutor
student hours in relation to the first scenario: Two students to separate
sets of tutor student hours.  Please, let me know what your program is doing
in regards to this situation.
