ARTICLE INTENDED FOR:
Faculty and Staff users of Starfish.
INTRODUCTION:
Each student's Starfish folder includes academic information imported nightly from LionPATH, as well as record of meetings, notes, and tracking items created in Starfish. View permissions for each item in the student folder is granted by role. Different Starfish roles have different view permissions.
ARTICLE BODY:
Overview tab
The Overview tab of the student folder shows academic information imported from LionPATH, as well as a graph of active warning flags for current courses.
The displayed Student Information is a snapshot of LionPATH information taken at 6:00 pm EST the prior day. LionPATH should always be considered the authoritative source for a student’s academic record, but this snapshot can make it easier for advisers to quickly review important academic information.
NOTE: All items on this tab are filterable, meaning you can use these categories and values to find other students with the same criteria.
NOTE: If there is no value for a particular piece of information, it is not displayed. For example, the student below does not have a second major, so no entry for Second Major (Plan) is displayed.
In this example folder, the adviser can quickly see this student is an 8th semester Economics BA major, with minors in History and French & Francophone Studies, currently enrolled full time and in good academic standing. The student was admitted to Penn State in Summer 2013 as a First-Year student.
