BSCW Project Help Files: Editing Personal Details

 

The workspace allows you to create a page with general information about yourself. This is helful for allowing members of the class to get to know one another and for the professor to have easy to reach contact information. Note that the information you leave is available to everyone in the class registered for this workspace and no one else. You are NOT required to leave any information beyond your full name.

To edit your biographical details use the drop down menu at the top of the BSCW interface (blue bar). Choose "Options" and when the menu bar drops down choose "My Profile " and then select "Change" as seen below:

When you choose the "Change" menu item you will see a blue dialogue screen that looks like this:

Here are a few hints on filling in the details:

• Use your full name with correct capitalizaion.

• Only members of the class can see this screen but you may choose not to put any personal details into this screen other than your name

• Do not add an alternative e-mail address. You may only use the Creighton NET ID here. The data will not enter properly if you fill in the alternative e-mail address.

• Leave blank the items I have left blank on my screen.

• After you have filled in both boxes click the "OK" button. Each time you type data on a screen for BSCW you must "enter" it into the database by pressing the "OK" button.

Thank you for updating your information!
