Academic Course Scheduling Process
February 20, 2020
This Hygge covered course scheduling vocabulary with a review of the timelines and workflow for the scheduling process. We provided updates on the new university-wide "course blackout period" that will be piloted this spring. We also reviewed the impacts of schedule revisions outside of the requested review periods, new instructor credentialing process, and reminders to watch out for when reviewing your program's schedule.
AAO Resource Webpage Rollout
September 26, 2019
Our resource webpage is now live! You can expect to find key information about academic affairs-related deadlines, forms, and process information. You can also access our NEW online report request form, learn more about our team, and review information from previous Hygge info sessions.
Student Forms
May 1, 2019
Our Student Forms Hygge focused the role of the AAO Logistics and Data Management Operations team (LDM) in this process with an overview of each type of student form (waiver/substitution, DIS, internship enrollment, permission to enroll in a graduate course, class/time conflict, US petition). We also covered signatory authority and the facilitation/routing of each form, as well as the follow-up tracking and reporting LDM does for all forms. Special guest Mark Forbes provided information about how advisors initiate student forms.
Presentation materials are below, including signatory authority, LDM Operations student form review process, and instructions for electronic signatures in Adobe documents. Please see the Registrar's Online Forms webpage for current versions of each form.
ICFP Operations (ALO)
February 26, 2019
Our ICFP Operations Hygge focused on the formation of our Internship, Clinical, and Field Placement Operations Team, which will be transitioning their name to Applied Learning Operations (ALO). The ALO team helps alleviate administrative tasks from faculty and community partners so they can better focus on student learning experiences. For more information about these services, please see the presentation materials below.
Curriculum/Curriculog & Canvas
January 30, 2019
Our Curriculum/Curriculog & Canvas Hygge focused on curriculum review processes pertinent to any curriculum changes to the 2020-2021 catalog. We also shared the latest information on Curriculog, how its implementation will impact our internal curricular processes, and future trainings CHHS will be offering. Special guests Sheri Conklin and Tom Dorgan led a question and answer forum about Canvas for our faculty and staff.
Key takeaways from the Canvas forum:
- Everyone (faculty and students) is encouraged to use the 24-hour Help Chat feature. For additional support, see the Canvas community website and the Canvas Help Hotline.
- Data will be removed from Canvas after 3 years, so DOWNLOAD grades and other data that affects accreditation reporting.
- Please give ITS an 8-12 week lead time to get any third party tools approved for use in your course. It takes that much time to ensure the tool is secure and adheres to all system and institutional policies. Note that third party tools do not have UNCW technical support structures.

ADA Compliance
November 6, 2018
Our ADA Compliance Hygge covered disability law in clinical placements and clinical setting best practices with special guest presentations from Associate Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs, Dr. Brian Victor, and Director of Disability Resource Center, Chris Stone.
Key takeaways from the forum:
- OEL is available to assist with modification of learning objectives for faculty syllabi.
- The DRC sends letters to faculty when they have a student in their class who has reported a disability to the DRC.
- Faculty/Staff can discuss the issues concerning field/internship placement of a student with a disability, as long as the student is not being specifically identified.
