PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT: iAdvise Tip of the Week – Don’t forget to check your Tracking Items regularly and clear filters to see all items!

The iAdvise Project Team has this week's tip for you:

We have faculty who are entering flags for students in non-Early Alerts courses - don't forget to check your Tracking Items regularly!

We are seeing increased usage of iAdvise by faculty members across campus to communicate with students and simultaneously alert advisors so they can support students with their challenges! We recommend checking your Tracking Menu regularly.

We also recommend that you check your filters in your Tracking Menu and clear and re-set your filters regularly. We have noticed that some folks are keeping filters on and they may interfere with newly delivered tracking items that aren't selected in the filter. To work around this but not have an overwhelming view, we recommend clearing a filter to check to make sure you're aware of the newest items delivered and then re-place your filter.

To clear filters, go to the right side of the upper bar and click the X next to "Edit Filters" or go into the Filters Dialog box and click "Clear All Filters." Either will work and then you can review new items and re-place filters if needed.
