Within the Personal Finance Simulation, it is possible to apply the most recent missed paychecks for students. This is a great feature if you have a student starting late to your course and you'd like them to get started on the simulation with their first paycheck.
You can check and apply for any missed paychecks with the following steps:
- Select Money Management on the left-hand side
- Select Money Transfer from the dropdown menu on the left.
- Here, you will select the Paycheck tab at the top.
- You can check for recent missed paychecks or all paychecks that may have been missed by selecting Manually Issue Paychecks.
- Here you will receive a confirmation of any missed paychecks that may have been issued.
While rare and not expected to occur, there are occasional instances where students may not receive their paychecks at the start of a new pay period due to server-side technical issues.
Previously, we recovered all paychecks for new students for the length of the course. This would cause an unfair advantage to these students and cause inaccurate scoring for progression in the simulation. If you would like students have more of a jumpstart in the simulation, you are more than welcome to provide a bonus reocurrring or one-time within the Debits & Credits in Money Transfer.
