We just released a new version of the Accudemia Data Exchange (a.k.a. ADX) app, you can now take a look to the new features it has to offer. The possibility to schedule jobs to run periodically lets you keep all your information in sync.

To do so, you just have to view the details of a job and hit Enable schedule: You will be prompted to enter a Windows account and password, they will be used to execute the job under that account.

In this post everything is done by hand, that means that you are going to have to type all student names, subject areas and all the information you might need.

You can do it from the User Accounts menu. Just make su

UPDATE: This is no longer necessary. Go to the Control Panel > Appearance and Themes to update the login instructions. Also, the screenshot shown below does not reflect the actual default page. See updated post. Most users never notice that the standard page shown to access Accudemia is just an example. You can always change the way it looks simply by sending us the new page. Also, it’s possible to stop using that page and have a better integration in your own site. You can put the login frame into your page; let’s see how to do that. You might want to contact the administrator of your website in order to do this, it will be a bit complex if you have never dealt with HTML code.

The purpose of this system is to increase student retention by identifying at-risk students and helping them before it is too late. Here is how it works: 1. Create the Early Warning Form The system administrator can create an Early Warning form that will be used by college faculty to issue the warnings. This is a web-based form that can be accessed online by instructors or staff. The System Administrator can create the form with whatever questions they like and indicate who will get a copy of the form when it is submitted.
