The student dashboard acts as a “front door” for students, providing them with easy access to valuable features “in one place”. The content presented is specific to the student. The dashboard has been designed to provide a consistent modern look and feel that is both responsive (mobile friendly) and accessible to those with disabilities.
Academics
Course Schedule
The course schedule feature provides students with a mobile friendly view of their course schedule in either a calendar or card view. Special attention is given to asynchronous courses with no set time. Clicking on a course opens a summary of the course details with links to external systems. Students can also link this content into the calendar of their choice.
My Grades
The My Grades feature is located on the student dashboard under the “Academics” tab. This feature is a more accessible summary of the grades that are currently available in SIS > My Grades. Students with more than one instance will have the option to toggle between each and to select the subsequent term. “My GPA” is the equivalent of the latest cumulative GPA in SIS>My Grades.
My Academic Team
The My Academic Team feature provides students with access to their instructors and advisors for the courses and programs they are enrolled in, including the name, email link, and course or program. For students who use Canvas, teaching assistants will also display on the feature.
My Assignments
The My Assignments feature displays Canvas and/or CoursePlus assignments due in the current week. In order to see more information about the assignment, students can click the assignments name and they will be directed into the LMS.
Research Opportunities
The dashboard now connects to ForagerOne, a platform enabling students to learn about research opportunities and engage with faculty members on their projects, with the support of HOUR. The feature encourages students to create a profile in ForagerOne. It also displays real time engagement data, quick access to the ForagerOne app, and for fun, it hosts a random opportunity and faculty generator!
