Campus events calendar - new release coming on 7/26

by Anonymous in , , , ,

Information Technology Services, in partnership with Communication & Marketing and Conferences & Events, pleased to announce that we will be launching a redesigned campus events calendar on Friday, July 26, 2019.

The Web Services team has partnering with calendar service Trumba to improve the ease-of-use and personalization of the campus events calendar experience for students, faculty, staff and the CSUCI community.  Highlights of this new release include:

  • Ability to receive email and SMS/text reminders about calendar events
  • Ability to subscribe to calendars and add them to your personal calendar
  • Table, list and month views for the calendar
  • Sign in and save events of interest using your CSUCI student or employee email account. 
To access a preview of the upcoming release, please visit: https://www.csuci.edu/events/. You can also review the list of new calendar features.

We encourage you to share your impressions or to let us know about any bugs that you find, please use the Events Calendar feedback form. We’re always looking for ideas for how to make the events calendar better.

Please contact the Solution Center at 805-437-8552 with any questions about these forthcoming changes. 

Improving access to calendar & deadline information

by Anonymous in , , ,

One common concern that students, faculty and staff have raised is how to make it easier to find information about events and key campus deadlines that are important to them. 

Information Technology Services has been running a pilot of Trumba, a calendar management system that helps share calendar information in a more flexible, personal way. 

You may have noticed some recent changes to the Calendars & Deadlines page. This important page has been the 20th most visited web page on the CSUCI web site over the past year (Feb 2018-Feb 2019).

New features on the Calendars & Deadlines page include:

1. Subscribing to receive event or deadline reminders by SMS text message or email.
2. Subscribing to events categories and automatically adding those events to your personal calendar. 
3. Search for events/deadlines by name
4. Filter events and deadlines by category

...and much more (see the list of key Trumba features). Teaching & Learning Innovations (T&LI) is also using Trumba as part of our pilot to publish workshop and other event information. View the T&LI Events Calendar, powered by Trumba. 

If you'd like to learn more about Trumba, and find out how your organization can begin to leverage this platform to deliver event and deadline information in a more interactive and personal way, please contact Daniel Martinez in Web Services to request a Trumba consultation. 



ITS Department Tech-E Trophies Awarded

ITS Department Tech-E Trophies Awarded

Recognizing Excellence in Service and Profession since 2011

In 2011 the ITS department sought a means to recognize and celebrate the people who keep all the technological plates spinning at CI.  The men and women of ITS work hard on many fronts, making sure that all the programs, applications, devices and connections that the campus depends on to meet our common mission are working at all times.  The ITS Tech-E award (a take on a common term for tech people--“techie” and the E for excellence)  was born out of this desire to recognize their hard work.  A committee of ITS peers was selected who worked together to identify and describe the traits that mark an EXCELLENT worker and these traits are included on the semi-annual nomination forms to help people identify those ITS personnel who best exemplify those traits.  In recognition of the fact that many ITS personnel do not get much face time outside of the department, eventually two separate but similar awards were created.  The Tech-E for Excellence in Profession is voted on by the ITS group only and is presented to that person who voters felt most exemplifies the traits of a positive attitude, dependability, approach-ability, innovation, and unselfishness.  The Tech-E for Excellence in Service recognizes those same traits but is voted on by the entire campus community of Faculty and Staff.  

(Side note:  Nominations will be sought again in the middle of the Spring Semester; keep an eye out for that email and nominate the ITS individual who represents excellence in Service to you!)

At a departmental Lunch and Learn the week of December 10th, two new winners were identified and were recognized for their contributions.  This semester the ITS Tech-E award for Excellence in Profession was awarded to Pedro Rivas.  Pedro is a member of the ITS Infrastructure Group who is a System Admin and focuses largely on ID Management work and is an innovator in many other areas.  Pedro has the distinction of having worked at CI as a student assistant for the Infrastructure group and eventually graduated not only with a degree in Computer Science but also a full-time job with ITS!  The Tech-E award for Excellence in Service was presented to Anderson Hanchett.  Anderson has been working (and excelling!) as an Information Technology Consultant for the Solution Center for nearly 18 months.  In this role, he handles many issues for users with desktop computers, laptops, wireless, and printing issues and has clearly stood out as a great example of ITS Excellence.  The entire ITS department congratulates these two fantastic hard-working colleagues!

CI Mobile Forum - notes from proceedings

by in , , , ,



On Thursday March 14, 27 students, faculty and staff met for the CI Open Forum on Mobile Strategy, and engaged in lively and thoughtful discussion of the challenges and opportunities CI faces in building a mobile campus and the future of mobile technology at CI.  

You can view notes from the mobile strategy forum and “unconference” proceedings.

As requested by forum participants, we’ll be sharing some narrated videos about mobile terminology, concepts and considerations on this same web site in the near future.

In the meanwhile, if you have any further thoughts, questions or comments about making CI more mobile-friendly, please feel free to contact Peter Mosinskis at peter.mosinskis@csuci.edu.
