Starfish and Study Jam

How and Why

Students utilizing Study Jam check-in with their 790 UMID via the Starfish Kiosk for all sessions. Usage statistics allow us to monitor daily check-ins, higher additional tutors for the most attended sessions, run comprehensive end of semester reports, lobby for reallocation and increases of resources, and, most of all, keep Study Jam at no additional cost to students.

Advisor Reports

Advisors have access to Study Jam check-in data for students officially on their advising caseloads.

Advisors are autonomous in their checking and usage of this data. At this point in our implementation stage, Study Jam logs include the student's full name, dates of attendance, and the specific course they sought tutoring for as provided by the student. Using Starfish in this way has cleaned up much of our data, but some areas of inconsistency still exist and not every student checks-in. 

Advisors may only view records for their student advisees.
