System Functions (Tools):
Student Profile:
The Student Profile is a comprehensive database encompassing all student (Banner and original) data since 2009. Original data can include advising private or public notes, tutoring, and testing appointment statistics. Students and instructors can access class schedules, grades, GPA, academic progress, accommodations, academic alerts, and verified notices through The Hub. Additionally, it provides access to international student information for a holistic view of student data.
Academic Progress Manager:
Instructors can utilize the Academic Progress Manager to submit academic alerts for students encountering attendance or academic challenges. Notifications are sent to student advisors, the Student Success and Support Center (SSSC), or off-campus (and online) academic administrators. Graduate Student Assistants (GSAs) can also submit academic alerts through the system.
Residents Care:
The Residents Care function within the Resident Manager supports Student Life by efficiently managing students residing on campus, especially those under 18. It also caters to students with housing accommodations approved by the Office of Accessibility Resources. The function is accessible to Student Life staff, resident assistants, university security officers, and health center personnel.
GPA Calculator:
The GPA Calculator simplifies GPA calculations for students by pulling their current grades. Advisors can also use this feature to get advisees' grade information and perform "what if" scenarios to assist students in academic planning.
Tools and Quick Links:
The "Tools and Quick Links" feature provides an extensive collection of useful, searchable links to assist students, faculty, and staff in navigating various Florida Tech web applications. From Maps and Canvas to CARE Form, Holzer Health Center, Panther Cash, Facilities Request, and more, this centralized repository ensures easy access to essential resources and streamlines essential administrative processes.
