Consider Qwickly Attendance |
Do You Use Respondus
in Your Class? |
The directions students should follow to take a quiz/exam using Respondus are different for New Quizzes or Classic Quizzes in Canvas. Best practice is to put the directions for your quiz type in the information section of the quiz. Don’t have the directions or don’t know what quiz type you have? Contact ETLC at helpdesk@uah.edu to get them today.
NOTE: If you run Cengage exams, the Respondus Monitor no longer works reliably with this software. You will not be able to see recordings of students taking the exams reliably.

Additional Student Supports |
A texting survey last month asked UAH undergraduates how they were feeling about the start of the semester. One in three of the 600 respondents indicated feeling anxious or overwhelmed. When asked what kind of support they needed, 60% wanted academic support, 23% wellness support, 10% financial support, and 7% social engagement. The texting survey followed up with resources for these students based on their response.
If you notice a student in need of additional support consider suggesting they engage with one of the following peer programs:
