| 1. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:08 PM | How to make the best use of blackboard |
| 2. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:13 PM | Self Service option |
| 3. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:13 PM | all the main things people use |
| 4. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:13 PM | I personaly wouldn't get much from it, but others that so not use the computer as much as i do would |
| 5. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:14 PM | just a general tutorial cd sent out with a "tour" is sufficient in my opinion |
| 6. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:14 PM | Blackboard tools |
| 7. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:18 PM | adding contacts with e-mail, posting of organizations |
| 8. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:19 PM | How to keep emails for longer than the period that is given and also how to customize MYUSI. |
| 9. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:32 PM | personal web page design |
| 10. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:32 PM | Things other than what I normally use (Blackboard, Financial info, Registration, Class look-up) |
| 11. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:33 PM | I'm pretty good at figuring things out for myself by playing around with different programs, but I'm sure there might be *something* that I don't know and could use. I obviously don't know *everything*. |
| 12. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:33 PM | If the training was my freshman year of college it would have been extremely helpful, but i have already learned to use it on my own. |
| 13. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:40 PM | Blackboard |
| 14. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:42 PM | more about class registration and paying tuition online. |
| 15. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:42 PM | Registration, Academic Skills, and Financial Aid |
| 16. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:46 PM | Looking up classes |
| 17. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:47 PM | how to sign up for classes and a little more about the different aspects of blackboard. |
| 18. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:50 PM | how to personally format it
|
| 19. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:52 PM | I think it would be nice to know exactly what all myusi is capable of helping us with. I'm going into my junior year and I'm still finding things I didn't realize I could access through there. |
| 20. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:54 PM | DARS web |
| 21. | Mon, 4/2/07 6:56 PM | In depth training on email, grades, registration, etc. |
| 22. | Mon, 4/2/07 7:11 PM | Help or frequently asked question should be more explaintory. |
| 23. | Mon, 4/2/07 7:11 PM | For freshmen I feel it would be quit a help. I am a transfer student from IUPUI and MYUSI was very confusing at first. It would have been very helpful if I had someone properly train me in one short session. |
| 24. | Mon, 4/2/07 7:26 PM | it's great |
| 25. | Mon, 4/2/07 7:34 PM | Everything available on MyUSI. |
| 26. | Mon, 4/2/07 7:58 PM | I struggle to get access from my home computer. MYUSI allows me to log on for a second but then kicks me off--even after I disabled the pop-up blocker. |
| 27. | Mon, 4/2/07 7:59 PM | I feel that I know almost all there is to know about MYUSI, just from exploring myself; however, I feel that there could possibly be a few extra things that I could learn through training. |
| 28. | Mon, 4/2/07 8:03 PM | I am proficient with accessing MYUSI. |
| 29. | Mon, 4/2/07 8:11 PM | grades and signing up for classes |
| 30. | Mon, 4/2/07 8:15 PM | It would be helpful becuase I do not understand what all is on myusi and what things I am missing out on using. I would not pay to learn more about it but if it were free I would go. |
| 31. | Mon, 4/2/07 8:23 PM | blackboard as listed on previous page response. It would be great for the students to be able to create an online calendar/student organizer. |
| 32. | Mon, 4/2/07 8:24 PM | How to use things such as class registration, dropping classes, looking at your financial standing, and all of those aspects that are under the students info. |
| 33. | Mon, 4/2/07 8:37 PM | How to remove old classes from Blackboard or be given a quick delete button. Also knowledge of extra items such as digital dropbox and other items some teachers tend to use to cut back on carrying so many papers back and forth to class.
Answer to the next question is:
This is available? N/A--have not contacted the Computer Help Desk |
| 34. | Mon, 4/2/07 8:37 PM | It is pretty self explanitory so I don't think much training is needed. |
| 35. | Mon, 4/2/07 8:40 PM | What MyUSI has to offer |
| 36. | Mon, 4/2/07 8:54 PM | With training, I would probably become aware of information that I did not knjow was available. |
| 37. | Mon, 4/2/07 9:16 PM | more about the campus construction |
| 38. | Mon, 4/2/07 9:16 PM | how to use the communication/discussion options |
| 39. | Mon, 4/2/07 9:20 PM | All the uses of it.... |
| 40. | Mon, 4/2/07 9:41 PM | Just all the different areas myusi can give me access to. I just don't feel i completely know what all it has to offer me. |
| 41. | Mon, 4/2/07 9:53 PM | Training on the little things in blackboard like groups and dicussion boards. The rest I had to already learn on my own. |
| 42. | Mon, 4/2/07 9:57 PM | It would be helpful to first time students at USI so they can learn all the resources available to them on the site. |
| 43. | Mon, 4/2/07 10:27 PM | I would have like to lean more when I was first entering my freshman year. I feel comfortable with MYUSI now. |
| 44. | Mon, 4/2/07 10:37 PM | blackboard |
| 45. | Mon, 4/2/07 10:40 PM | The first time I ever used MYUSI, I was definately lost. I didn't know how to get there and I didn't know how to access my email. Just maybe a one day course where you show all the features and aspects of MYUSI would be helpful. Or if you put like some part of that in the Orentation for freshmen. |
| 46. | Mon, 4/2/07 10:41 PM | The only thing I know how to use is my email and Blackboard |
| 47. | Mon, 4/2/07 10:48 PM | Some of the links are hidden and it is extremely hard to contect with a particular link. In other words, the links are continously chained. |
| 48. | Mon, 4/2/07 10:59 PM | More on Rice Library access. |
| 49. | Mon, 4/2/07 11:06 PM | More about Breeze and chat
More about databases |
| 50. | Mon, 4/2/07 11:07 PM | Use of calendar, registering for classes, etc. |
| 51. | Mon, 4/2/07 11:15 PM | Calendars |
| 52. | Mon, 4/2/07 11:49 PM | navigation |
| 53. | Tue, 4/3/07 12:12 AM | I'd like to learn more about the process of registering for classes and how to view information, such as financial status, grades, and tax information for financial aid. |
| 54. | Tue, 4/3/07 12:52 AM | the features outside of email, sometimes the directions for the self-service, etc. are not very clear. |
| 55. | Tue, 4/3/07 12:52 AM | I do not need training only because I have already been using MYUSI for a couple years, and I know how to use it efficiently. |
| 56. | Tue, 4/3/07 12:55 AM | My USI is only the page we can work on our assignments.if we fully dont understand or cant operate MYUSI than there is lot we lose and that could result in our falling grades.There are lot of other facilities which we dont even look at it and therefore every single thing of myusi has to be understood very well by the students. |
| 57. | Tue, 4/3/07 1:01 AM | Just a basic description of the buttons such as finding out the housing, and the library how that works. |
| 58. | Tue, 4/3/07 1:01 AM | how to look up email addresses/contact info, how to summit things through blackboard, etc |
| 59. | Tue, 4/3/07 1:52 AM | Tell exactly how to sign up, where to find grades, and just other benefits |
| 60. | Tue, 4/3/07 2:00 AM | I was a transfer student and i was never told about blackboard. If it werent for friends then i would have had no idea how to do my online class. |
| 61. | Tue, 4/3/07 2:22 AM | I believe that the most valuable aspect to learn on the MYUSI website would be Blackboard. |
| 62. | Tue, 4/3/07 3:19 AM | looking up records |
| 63. | Tue, 4/3/07 3:47 AM | how to look at your email through microsoft outlook |
| 64. | Tue, 4/3/07 4:19 AM | The transcript access. |
| 65. | Tue, 4/3/07 6:46 AM | I really was not aware of all the capabilities of MYUSI. I use it for email and blackboard primarily and before my freshman year I joined some posting groups I forget what they were called to meet people since I did not know anyone coming down here. I dont think it's overly complicated to use, so training isnt neccessarily useful for that but more for ways to use it. |
| 66. | Tue, 4/3/07 12:19 PM | Soon will be graduating. Have what I need. |
| 67. | Tue, 4/3/07 12:54 PM | When I first started using it I had many questions that I soon figured out myself.
But how to access everything and maybe an online tour would have been great. |
| 68. | Tue, 4/3/07 3:15 PM | Blackboard |
| 69. | Tue, 4/3/07 3:18 PM | I just feel like maybe I'm not aware of all things I can access through MyUSI |
| 70. | Tue, 4/3/07 3:29 PM | I managed to work my way through it and learn from the help which was sufficient for me. But I do see where someone who has not used the computer as much as I might have difficulty. |
| 71. | Tue, 4/3/07 4:17 PM | Who to contact when you have problems. |
| 72. | Tue, 4/3/07 4:39 PM | I would feel the training for blackboard would be most helpfull. |
| 73. | Tue, 4/3/07 4:58 PM | I have learned most of what I know from friends and others who have taken online courses, as well as trial and error. Most instructors give a quick lesson before the course begins. I'm sure there are things that I can learn yet. |
| 74. | Tue, 4/3/07 6:29 PM | creating online groups, posting to online groups, sending out emails to the whole campus (as a group leader), etc. |
| 75. | Tue, 4/3/07 6:36 PM | i hear many student asking questions about myusi. if we were to be trained, this would eliminate questions |
| 76. | Tue, 4/3/07 7:05 PM | I use my usi all the time, but I am sure that there are many other things I can do, but just don't know that I can |
| 77. | Tue, 4/3/07 7:23 PM | To find out information about classes and majors. |
| 78. | Tue, 4/3/07 7:29 PM | the other tabs at the top... such as campus life or web life. |
| 79. | Tue, 4/3/07 8:07 PM | how to find information about campus events/organizations as well as how/where to join them. |
| 80. | Tue, 4/3/07 9:33 PM | How to assess info about the library and how to pay bills and request loans. |
| 81. | Tue, 4/3/07 9:41 PM | Navigation. This site is poorly constucted with links that are not clearly marked and fairly obscure. |
| 82. | Tue, 4/3/07 10:50 PM | It would help me be better prepared for my distance ed classes. |
| 83. | Wed, 4/4/07 1:07 AM | learning how to access different areas of my usi such as looking up teacher's email addresses, registering for classes, etc. |
| 84. | Wed, 4/4/07 1:22 AM | email - using the address book and retaining addresses |
| 85. | Wed, 4/4/07 2:50 AM | Making a web-site, research, etc... |
| 86. | Wed, 4/4/07 6:46 AM | it would just help by allowing students to obtain the knowledge of how to access grades, personal finances, being able to enroll for classes on you own and so much more. Basicaly i think it would be helpful so you can know what all the My USI sights have to offer and what type of questions can be answered feom it. |
| 87. | Wed, 4/4/07 1:34 PM | access to bulletin information, searching for department forms and information and locating people working on campus |
| 88. | Wed, 4/4/07 5:36 PM | mainly just when they change things around like features such as the self-help tab |
| 89. | Wed, 4/4/07 5:47 PM | Researching thru Rice Library not really difficult but sometimes lengthy searches. |
| 90. | Wed, 4/4/07 9:53 PM | During Orientation, the AMIGOs help to teach how to register everything online; however, it may be beneficial to retrain. Also, when I came through, I was told to get on MY USI, and play around. They said that you couldn't really hit anything that you could mess up. That was the best advice I was given. I got on, played around, and figured everything out. |
| 91. | Wed, 4/4/07 10:47 PM | the most effective ways to utilize the site |
| 92. | Thu, 4/5/07 1:06 AM | i figured out how to access blackboard so i could get the necessary points to pass the class by being able to take the quizzes and pre-labs. i have the feeling my usi offers more but i don't really know what to ask for. |
| 93. | Thu, 4/5/07 4:01 AM | How to access and navigate myusi and blackboard, especially the classes on blackboard the first time using myusi. |
| 94. | Thu, 4/5/07 4:31 AM | It could have been helpful when it was taught at the beginning of the course. Now I am learning to navigate the system and getting a little better but I still have a lot to learn.Learning is somewhat a slow process but hopefully I will gain mastery in no time.It is always good to think positive. |
| 95. | Thu, 4/5/07 5:15 AM | Blackboard login and useage |

| 98. | Mon, 4/9/07 3:20 PM | I have not used it for three years, but it would have been nice to learn all the features of it when I was freshman. |
| 99. | Mon, 4/9/07 3:22 PM | Just an overall brief on what MYUSI can do. |
| 100. | Mon, 4/9/07 3:40 PM | To move around on the site |
| 101. | Mon, 4/9/07 3:41 PM | How to find out about events on campus |
| 102. | Mon, 4/9/07 4:03 PM | I don't think that much training is needed. The site is very simple to use. |
| 103. | Mon, 4/9/07 4:04 PM | general online tutorial that is optional to use. |
| 104. | Mon, 4/9/07 4:18 PM | I would like to see more instructors use BlackBoard. I would like to learn more about BlackBoard. |
| 105. | Mon, 4/9/07 4:19 PM | Well, I'm pretty comfortable with it now, but when I first started here, I was lost...mainly about blackboard. |
| 106. | Mon, 4/9/07 4:22 PM | The integrated calender/scheduler. |
| 107. | Mon, 4/9/07 4:55 PM | how do I look up teachers e-mail addresses? |
| 108. | Mon, 4/9/07 4:57 PM | helps new students navigate around MyUSI |
| 109. | Mon, 4/9/07 4:58 PM | More about the processes that you use to keep track of your personal records and grades. |
| 110. | Mon, 4/9/07 5:30 PM | Adding feeds to your own MyUsi webpage |
| 111. | Mon, 4/9/07 5:40 PM | Its all very confussing to navigate |
| 112. | Mon, 4/9/07 5:54 PM | I don't understand all of the purposes of the tabs and how to access some of the basic services through MYUSI. |
| 113. | Mon, 4/9/07 6:25 PM | I would be helpful to know how to navigate for financial aid and holds. Also how to register gave me issues this semester. |
| 114. | Mon, 4/9/07 6:30 PM | DARS |
| 115. | Mon, 4/9/07 7:06 PM | only if my professors were trained also so that they would use it to its full potential more. |
| 116. | Mon, 4/9/07 7:24 PM | I pretty much have figured out MyUSI on my own. However, if there was a formal sort of training, it would have been faster and easier to learn about. |
| 117. | Mon, 4/9/07 7:33 PM | It would be nice if each tab was explained and how to access grades, transcripts, and registration for classes. There are several steps that one has to take to get to these places and it took me a while to figure it out on my own. |
| 118. | Mon, 4/9/07 7:43 PM | It would help to show how you can access the different colleges for different majors. |
| 119. | Mon, 4/9/07 9:09 PM | I feel pretty comfortable on it just because I use it often and even play around with it for myself but there is always something I may have missed out on. |
| 120. | Mon, 4/9/07 10:24 PM | It just needs to be taught on the beginning. It is confusing if you have never taken an online class before. Discussion board has changed and I feel is more difficust than when I started a year ago. |
| 121. | Mon, 4/9/07 10:41 PM | I have pretty much used it for 3 years now, so i don't need the training, but incoming freshmen or transfers would find it very beneficial |

can the calendar be updated with my home calendar? |
| 124. | Tue, 4/10/07 12:36 AM | My USI is fairly straightforward, although the campus computers need to log automatically into your account when they ask for your password. |
| 125. | Tue, 4/10/07 1:35 AM | There may be items on myusi that I am not aware of. |
| 126. | Tue, 4/10/07 4:11 AM | I would like to know all of the different services other than the basics such as email and basic blackboard use, that my usi offers. |

| 132. | Wed, 4/11/07 4:46 PM | sending all kinds of emails, like papers or pictures. |
| 133. | Wed, 4/11/07 5:28 PM | I can not find class description or the catalog descriptions. |
| 134. | Wed, 4/11/07 7:11 PM | On MYUSI all I know how to do is check my mail. I think it would be nice to have something offered that shows what all is available on MYUSI and how to access it. |
| 135. | Thu, 4/12/07 4:23 PM | I would like to learn more about how to navigate myself through the site. |

| 138. | Fri, 4/13/07 8:28 PM | blackboard access, anything in the self-service tab... |
| 139. | Sat, 4/14/07 6:51 PM | When I started I would have been very greatfull to have been able to attend a class to learn the basics. I am an adult returning to school and although I had computer use it was in the financial world. It was a bit overwhelming to begin classes, and tring to figure out how to use everthing at one time. With my classes the My USI Blackboard was a must as that is where we had to get all our sylibus, schedule of assignment,lecture notes, etc. |
| 140. | Mon, 4/16/07 3:53 PM | how to use everything with blackboard |
| 141. | Tue, 4/17/07 4:14 PM | rice library- how to find journal articles for papers etc.PLEASE |
| 142. | Wed, 4/18/07 5:26 PM | Since you can now pay your school bill through MyUSI a lesson on that and just navigating around the site would be helpful. |
| 143. | Fri, 4/27/07 6:27 PM | just to be sure I know, can find, and use all the aspects of the site to its full benefits as a student |
