DM Work Order #1

Screen: Media Contributions

Rename to Media Attention so the purpose of this screen is clearer to faculty. Make necessary changes to ensure appropriate data is captured and clear to faculty when entering

1. Hide Media Type[TYPE] and Explanation of “Other” [TYPE_OTHER] fields.

This field does not provide benefit to anyone, so just hide it for now.

2. Add Screen Description to the top of screen.

At the top of the screen, add the following text to help clarify the use of this screen.

“Use this screen to document any attention from the media about you professionally, or your work. “

• Rename field label “Media Name” [NAME] to “Media Topic”
  • Mark as a REQUIRED field
  • Help text “The subject of the article or story about you or your work – a keyword.

4. Change text label from “Link to Resource” to “Link to Media”

This will clarify the purpose of this field for the screen

• Add Help text “Separate multiple links by a semicolon.”

5. Change the text label of Description to “Description (1000 characters)”

• Add help text “Use this field to document the type of attention received. Please highlight key outlets or the number of outlets this topic was covered in.”

Screen: Publications

After discussion with the group, it was determined that we would use the Publications screen to track all work authored by a faculty member; this was previously split between Publications and Media Contribution. Since this screen will have a wider scope than traditional publications, we are re-naming it “Publications and Intellectual Contributions”.

1. Add text to the top of the screen: “Track all work you have authored here, regardless of the distribution format or method.”
2. Add the following Publication Types [CONTYPE] into the list to facilitate a wider scope of records.

• Add
  • Website
  • Blog
  • Graphic, educational, or informational display
  • White Paper
  • Policy Paper
  • Broadcast Media
  • Digital Media
  • Software or App
  • Database
• Modify
  • Written Case with Instructional Material -> Case Study
