Dr. Bart Bartlett, PIC Undergraduate Major, Hotel Restaurant and Institutional Management, has asked a very interesting question about the grade book. He wants to know if there is a way to upload and download an Excel spreadsheet that will keep the columns and rows accurate and in which he can post scores to the grade book. He currently penalizes students 10 points for every homework they miss, i.e. out of the 15 homeworks, if you miss 3 you will be at 70 points. How can we get the gradebook to reflect this policy?

Hope everyone had a great break! I’m finally back after getting all my paperwork submitted!

My current mentees are:

Dr. Kotty Postle, a professor in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, who I have been helping set up her course in ANGEL. It is her first time using ANGEL and I have been available to her both in consultations and e-mail correspondence. Currently we have worked together for 1 hour.

Bob Slaney is a professor in Counselor Education, Counseling Psychology, and Rehabilitation Services. It is also his first time working with ANGEL but he is very receptive to the features and utilities they provide. I have been available to him both in consultations and e-mail correspondence. Currently we have worked together for 1 hour.

I have worked a total of 2 hours in consultations this period, and I will be entering that on labman.

Meeting on Wednesday, Jan. 24 with Bruce Herold

- I met with Bruce for the first time this week. He had basically one question, which is how to use the angel email system to send out mass emails to his students. He needed to forward important emails from department heads onto his students. I showed him how to use the angel email system and also how to attach emails within the message. After completing this task, I asked him if I could give him an overview of Angel but he wasn't too willing to do that. He basically wanted me to solve this task which had been bugging him for a while. I am meeting with him today (Monday, Jan. 29) to go over how to use the podium in a lecture hall properly. This might be our last meeting today, but I will encourage him to email me if he has any further questions later on in the semester.

Meetings lined up for this week:

- Monday, Jan. 29 with Bruce Herold to go over podium technology and usage.

- Sent Jon Olson an email to continue on with our tutoring sessions from last semester.

- Sent Elise Uhring an email to set up a meeting for this Wednesday to start meetings.

Hours for week: 2
