EIS Gradebook Supports UNTHSC Student Success

The UNT Health Science Center (HSC) has recently implemented the EIS Gradebook functionality within the Faculty and Student Center portals for the Physician Assistant and Premedical Science Program. UNTHSC Programmer Analyst, Prafulla Srinivasan, reports that this new functionality assists faculty and department chairs in better monitoring a student’s progress during a class instead of waiting until the end of a term. This added functionality also allows students to view their assignments, grades, and instructor comments from within their own EIS Student Center. “This is a very valuable feature that should promote our retention efforts at UNTHSC, “says Thomas Morrman, Ed.D., Vice President for Student Affairs. “This implementation will provide the Center for Academic Performance the ability to offer timely interventions for students experiencing academic challenges.”

Future plans include releasing the module to other schools and departments within the UNTHSC.
