Dear Undergraduate Program Directors,
I
have produced a couple of videos that will help students use Rutgers
Degree Navigator and Schedule Planner. Please forward this email
people in your department who advise students.
The first video is targeted towards 1st
year students and shows them how to use Rutgers Degree Navigator. It
does use the new Core for examples, but focusses more on how to use
Degree Navigator’s “Planned Courses”, and “Search” functions, than it
does on actual requirements. Even a lot of advisors don’t know how to
use the “Planned Courses”, so some of you may learn something! If
you give the link to upper class students, warn them that the new core
is different than what they are following and that you can’t double use
courses in the old core. Students following the old core are allowed to
change to the new core, if it works better for them. Just send them to
our office.
The
second video shows students how to use Rutgers Schedule Planner to
develop their schedule and register for courses. It targets 1st
year students but would be appropriate for anyone who doesn’t know how
to use Schedule Planner. Most advisors do not realize that they have
access to Schedule Planner. You can sign in and show students how to
build their schedule. Your Schedule Planner won’t link to Webreg, but
other than that, it’s the same as the student’s Schedule Planner.
This
is the first year we have produced academic “how to” videos. If you
have ideas for other academic oriented videos, or would like to help me
produce a video, feel free to contact me!
