1. Faculty Workshop - Data Analysis With JMP

A basic and advanced workshop will be held in Library 202A, Thursday, April 26 between 10:00am and 3:00pm. Online registration is requested, to tailor the presentation for Cal Poly faculty. JMP Academic Ambassador, Mia Stephens, will facilitate each workshop.

JMP software provides the complete spectrum of statistics and graphics for engineering, science and business needs – from basic analytics to the most complex analyses in a visual, interactive and intuitive manner.

Under the Cal Poly site license, JMP is available for Apple/Windows (32 and 64-bit versions) along with free e-learning and regular Webinars (live and on-demand). Faculty, staff and students are covered for instruction and research uses and installation on state-owned and personal computers.

5. Clicker Strategy and FAQs

In response to a request from the California State Student Association and the CSU Chancellor's Office, Cal Poly has published its strategy, guidelines, FAQs and other resources for using clickers (classroom response systems). These guidelines are intended to help the university make informed decisions when choosing clickers for classroom and administrative use. To meet the goals of minimizing costs and after extensive review, the i>clicker brand is strongly recommended for standardized use at Cal Poly. For more information, visit "Strategy" and "FAQ" or contact Terri Bruns at (805) 756-7158.

6. Online Surveys

As part of campus efforts to improve universal design and security around survey tools, we offer online surveys powered by SurveyGizmo. For information, contact Craig Schultz at (805) 756-6117.
