What is E*Value?
E*Value is a web-enabled application developed by
Advanced Informatics. It’s designed to automate many tasks that we used
to perform manually.
What can I do using E*Value?
Here’s a partial list …
•
Create & maintain a personal online portfolio
•
Review clinical skills performed by students
•
Complete evaluations about students, preceptors, etc
•
Review evaluations completed by you and by others
•
Create forums that students can use to share experiences
Many functions are
under construction.
You will be notified
as they are rolled
out.
YOU DO …
Links on your E*Value Home Page will bring
you to activities that you need to complete
and/or review as well as activities that you may
access at your discretion.
For some activities (like evaluations), E*Value also generates an automatic
e-mail alert (with a link). For example, you may receive an alert that an
evaluation is pending (ready for you to complete), completed by a student
(ready for your review), and so on.
Yes, E*Value is very user-friendly.
Data entry is based
on actions that most users are already familiar with.
For example …
•
Text entry mimics MS Word.
•
Selecting items from a drop-down list requires a simple ‘point & click’.
•
Docs and .pdf images can be uploaded using a ‘browse’ feature.
What if I make a mistake?
No problem. You can cancel or delete most data
entries in E*Value. If you run into a snag, call your E*Value Administrator.
About your E*Value account.
You have a unique
password-protected account that was created by your
E*Value Administrator. It includes demographics and
other information about you.
You are assigned to a Home Program (BSN, MN, Doctoral)
that reflects the program you’re likely to work in most often.
Many faculty users are linked to more than one program.
Keeping your data secure.
E*Value uses SSL encryption to ensure that data
transmitted over the Internet can’t be intercepted or decoded by others.
Controls are also in place to ensure that other E*Value users can’t view information
about you unless they’ve been given access by your E*Value Administrator.
Login Name & Password.
When a user account is created, E*Value
automatically assigns a login name & password that’s unique to each user.
Your E*Value Administrator will send this temporary Login Name & Password
to you in an e-mail message. Use it to access E*Value for the first time.
After you login, please change your password immediately.
Confidentiality.
The confidentiality of information in your E*Value
account is important, so please help us protect your privacy.
DO NOT share your login name or password with anyone … ever !!!
Browsers.
Since E*Value is web-based,
you’ll need to connect to the Internet using
a web browser. Common browsers include:
