Discussion • The services that were academic based and vital to the academic success of students, (webmail, course catalogue, the library website, grades/ GPA, academic calerndar, and class schedule) were the student services most frequently used • There is a great need and desire to restructure and reorganize the manner in which student services are displayed online. • The existing organization of the website does not make it easy to search for information nor does it allow for this information to be well-known and accessible to students Spring 2009 | CM/CS 348 Human Computer Interaction | Self-Services for Students Study
