2022-2023
Deeper Dives are opportunities for faculty and staff users to come together to have conversations about how to best use iAdvise. They are not designed as lectures or trainings, but rather as places for users to get their questions answered from other users and OAD staff.
We recently held our first Deeper Dive first session: “Dipping Your Toe into the Deeper Dive – Quick Reviews of Hot Topics.”
This interactive session included submissions that are reviews and quick overviews of aspects of the system where the iAdvise team gets quite a few questions:
- Reviewing Roles and Relationship including
- Which units are in iAdvise? Do they have appointments or only notes?
- Overview of Faculty Usage including
- Info about Early Alerts, etc.
- Visibility of Advisors
- Live Q & A
Because the session involved looking at live student data in iAdvise, those who wish to view the recording will need to email iadvise [at] uic.edu.
Future Sessions:
The iAdvise Team has reviewed all of your suggested topics and used them to inform topics for our future presentations:
