This email is intended to alert interested parties to the website of the
Liverpool John Moores University S3 (Student/Staff/System Self-Service)
Project, funded under the JTAP initiative as 'Disintermediated Student
Record Access'.
A key element of the Information Strategy of JMU is the desire to
significantly enhance the efficiency of its business processes by using web
technologies to enable a transformation to a disintermediated or
self-service model. That is, one in which all internal business
transactions will be undertaken by staff and students directly interacting
with automated systems, rather than these transactions having to be
undertaken on their behalf by intermediaries.
The 12-month JTAP project is concentrating on student-related systems, and
is based on the development of a web-based system enabling students to view
and update their own Student Record, undertake on-line module registration,
and access course and exam timetables, and enabling staff to access student
information, monitor progress, and enter assessment data. The project will
address both the technical issues, and also report on issues related to
usability, change management and associated process reengineering.
If you're interested in the project, the development website is at URL
http://s3.livjm.ac.uk; the site includes further information on the
development, and demonstration pages, which will be updated as the project
progresses.
