Important Notes

 

  1. Make copies of the student information sheet and distribute it to your students during the first class period. Please emphasize important points for them.
     
  2. All students and faculty should obtain Kean e-mail addresses to receive campus-wide communications. The form can be duplicated as needed and it must be hand delivered to Campus School South (CSS) room 113 for processing. Please distribute the forms during the first two weeks of class. (Note: Even through your roster in KeanWISE will show the students to have Kean e-mail addresses, those e-mail addresses will only be activated after each student submits the form.
     
  3. Submit a hard copy of your syllabus to me (in addition to the one you submit to Ms. Coleman) by the end of the second week of class.  If you are teaching 1031/32 or 1033/34, please incorporate the dates of your portfolio  review and  the grade-related value of student attendance on your syllabus.
     
  4. Review assessment procedures carefully so there will be consistency in the administering of the assessment materials and your syllabus will include appropriate readings for the course imbedded mid-course and end-course essays.
     
  5. Please make copies of the Grammar Workshop Schedule/Referral Form and keep them nearby when you are grading papers. The workshops are open to all students in 1030, 1031/32 and 1033/34. They have been under utilized in the past, while our students demonstrated the need for focused grammar instruction.  The self-contained workshops are targeted group instructional sessions conducted by an English Professor.
     
  6. Your class rosters are posted on KeanWise. If you are new to Kean, you should select KeanWISE on the Kean University home page and input your login (Username) and password (PIN) information. If you are a continuing professor, but you have forgotten your password, you may contact the Office of Computer and Information Services (OCIS) at (908) 737-6000 to have it reset. Passwords can only be reset during normal business hours (Monday-Friday 8:30AM-4:00PM). Passwords must be six to nine characters in length and must include both letters and numbers. KeanWISE is case sensitive. At the end of the semester all grade submissions are done electronically on KeanWISE.

    If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
