My Info

This page is similar to a profile and can be used to store and share personal information such as a picture, email address, and other information about yourself.  Whenever you see the My Info Popup icon, you are able to view the personal details for that person that have been identified on his/her My Info.

If you are a faculty member, the information that is entered on My Info is displayed on your respective course information pages.  Therefore, students are able to click on a link from one of your courses and view the information you entered on My Info, including your available office hours.

After you have logged in to the system, click on the Personal Info link next to your name - this accesses your My Info page where you see a series of tabs, depending on the configuration that has been performed at your school.

Account Info

You can update your Preferred First Name (displayed on your login as well as to others), choose to Hide your Middle Name, and select a Prefix for your name by choosing one from the available drop down menu.  If your Email and Suffix are in read only status, this information cannot be updated using the Account Info tab.

After you have entered information, you can click on the Preview My Info pop-up link at the bottom of the screen to view the information as it is displayed to others.

Password

You can change your password on this screen by entering your old password and then choose a new password and confirm it.  You can also identify a password hint that can be sent to you in the event you cannot remember your password.

The next time you try to log in to the system and cannot remember your password, click on the I Forgot My Password link and your password is sent to your email account.

Photo

You may have the ability to choose a photo (in GIF or JPEG format) that is displayed when your personal information is accessed by others, depending on the configuration that has been selected at your school.

After you have entered information, you can click on the Preview My Info pop-up link at the bottom of the screen to view the image as it is to be displayed.

Office Hours

This tab can be used by faculty members to identify available office hours.  A note can also be created and displayed in addition to or instead of the actual day and time.
