Student self-advocacy through Starfish
The Center would like to remind students who feel they may need help of the Raise Your Hand feature in Starfish. For general assistance for personal or academic concerns, students can select the “I need help” option and their general advisor will be notified. Students can also select the “I need help in a course” option and their instructor will be notified. Raise Your Hand is located on the Starfish Dashboard.
Remote learning assistance through Starfish
A new Remote Learning Assistance flag is now available to instructors in Starfish. This flag is for the benefit of students who instructors believe may need additional support to be successful in a remote learning environment.
When instructors raise the flag, the student will receive an email with information regarding a variety of online resources. The student’s general advisor or their program advisor can then follow up to offer additional support as needed.
