Student IT best practise


.

Description

This is a unique project that gives mathematics students the opportunity to improve their study process with the support from the IT department. Video lectures, podcasts, student app, math forum - these are the recent ideas that we took in our consideration. But this project does not restrict itself only to such "fancy" development steps. We collect information about and try to improve the IMATH-'my' webpage (https://www.math.uzh.ch/my/), I-Math mainpage (http://www.math.uzh.ch/), other uni online resources to make them more user-friendly and useful to students. Thus, we kindly advice you to take part in our challenging project!

Survey

The survey for the first year mathematics students:

Feature-Request

Topic

Descripton

Status

my > Home Quota

this tab's necessity is not clear - merged with the Overview as a descriptive box: Disk Quota at IMATH

solved

my > Overview: semester dates

show semester dates under my

solved

my > Overview: link to handout

link to IMATH-'IT Services Information'

solved

my > Overview: personal lectures

show under my the personal subscribe lectures - only if logged in user is a student. Linked to the the 'my/lectures' page

my > Lectures > homework grades

Add the personal homework performance rating among other students (e.g. in the form: "my place № / number of the enrolled students", where the placement is defined by simple compare without percentage calculation)

my > printing: webprint interface

sending printing commands via browser (similar to the ETH webpage: http://idvpp01.ethz.ch/vpppdf.html)

in progress

my > student app

student app (with a full or partial functionality of My; with other useful features as a task manager, data exchange tool, university buildings maps, so on)

my > planning tool

online study planning with the progress estimate (could also be implemented under the student app)

my + IMath solutions > The students forum

* The students forum with the support from the teaching assistants; * platform where students could find a learning group, homework partners; * online solution to share lecture notes, lecture summaries

my + IMath solutions > podcast

video lectures, online streaming in the form of webinar

my + IMath solutions > general

easier way to access the previous years exams info

my + IMath solutions > general

Better structured archive with the previous and recent scripts over all semester & lectures

IT courses1

Introductory courses to LaTeX or other mathematical programs (Sage, Mathematica, …)

  • 'My' as a common deposition to get the final remarks before it's on the Leistungsausweis

Good to know

  • WLAN: The VPN technology allows the UZH members to use internet at some public places as train stations and hospitals for free. The password for the VPN can be set up and changed at the Identity Manager. For more information see: https://wiki.math.uzh.ch/public/VPN

  • Mail / Tasks / Calendar: The Uni webmail allows users to access not only their Domino-based mail but calendar, schedule, to-do list, contacts, and notebook (Notes Journal).
