Changes to the Studies tab on studentcentral

This week we have released a new version of the Studies tab in order to provide a more flexible way for staff and students to work with Instances and organise their studies.

What’s New?

  • You’ll see for the first time you can collapse the boxes on this page, remove some entirely, move them around and add additional boxes (click ‘add modules’).
  • There’s a new ‘My Favourites’ box – click the cog on the right-hand side of the box’s title bar to add your favourites to the box then click Submit to finish.
  • Add the Bookmarks box – you can have up to 6 bookmarks readily available on the Studies tab.

Watch this short video to find out how to use and set up boxes on your Studies page

What else is planned?

  • The Instructor/Student icon has gone. All modules show the same circle icon but we hope to be able to reintroduce this feature in the coming months.
  • We have lots of ideas for new modules to be added to the tab and other ways you can personalise your display. Let us know your ideas in the comments below.

We’d love to know what you think – please leave us a comment below. If you are experiencing issues or notice modules displaying in the wrong place then please email me.

Katie is the eLearning Services Manager at the University of Brighton.

  4. Hi there, i wondered why the digital timetable is not seen without searching forever to find it. i still cant find mine and have been using a paper copy since the beginning of term. any thoughts as to why there;s so much stuff on the main pages but nothing so important as a link to my timetable!
