  1. Show preferred name at kiosk and in logs for students.

    We have students, trans and otherwise, who do not go by the legal name on their transcripts. It is extremely disruptive to them when accudemia deadnames them every time the legal name overrides thier preferred name. For example I have a tutor who goes by a different name and he has to tell students his deadname whenever they signout and have to select a tutor. It makes the center look like an unsafe space.

  2. In order to be able to create instructional guides, presentations, and videos, administrators need to be able to have the same view as other users (students, tutors, and instructors). For example, I need to be able to train my tutors to use the system, but I can't even see what they see from my account. I have all four roles, but my view is always the administrator view.

  3. When editing announcements in dark mode, the WYSIWYG editor does not have an option to also be in dark mode. This means that when I am checking contrast, especially for link color, I cannot tell if what I've chosen will work until after publication. Can the WYSIWYG editor have a dark mode?

  4. Currently, only weekly appointment settings can be set per center. Some centers are very busy, and would therefore benefit from a daily appointment cap as it would allow them to ensure that students cannot make back-to-back appointments or several appointments in a single day.

  5. When a student chooses a group/workshop as a service, they should have the ability to see the available groups/workshops by title/topic, not by facilitator, otherwise they do not know what group they are signing up for. If your college is like ours, then you probably have many different workshop topics/titles, and creating a specific service for each one is not ideal, as we do not want students to have to scroll through a long list to find what they need. The scheduling system should be able to allow the facilitator's schedule to include the topic/title they are teaching and show…

  6. Tutors fill out tutor assessments for all emailed essays, which are currently recorded in session logs. I send reports of the tutor assessments to instructors. We would like to explore using the support drop box instead of emailed essays but tutors cannot fill out tutor assessments on tickets. Can we add tutor assessments similar to session logs in the closed ticket section?

  7. The attendance summary report has the key information that we need, but we need to be able to filter that report by user group, which is not currently available. Essentially, we need to see the number of visits for each user group, not just the total time used, which is not available in any of the current reports.

  8. Our college has several learning centers using Accudemia. Each has unique needs and ways in which they operate. Therefore, each center needs to control the number of services allowed to be selected at sign-in. This is currently a college-level control and thus this has to be uniform for all centers. However, some centers would prefer to limit this to only one service, others want to allow students to select multiple services.

  9. Most tutors or coaches may not tutor all courses. For example, it is challenging to select more than 2500 courses from the list for every writing center tutor and deselect the content-based courses that tutors do not tutor. Adding this option will prevent the writing center tutors' slots from showing up when students want to book content-based courses.

  10. Please make a way for tutors to send reports to the instructor right from the Session Assessment. We used to contract with TutorTrac, and one feature they had that we really liked was that the tutor could leave notes/assessment on the session, click "save," and then have the option to email the instructor via a button right in the same window. This was very convenient!

  11. There is already a global option for this. It would be nice to be able to set this option for individual tutors. For example if a tutor wants to only do 6 appointments per week but has availability for 10 slots, then have a setting so that once that tutor is scheduled for 6 appointments there can be no more appointments scheduled that week.

  12. Under Manage Center, it would be great to have the option to see "All" under location, the same way we can for Session Logs. Trying to see who is in each of our centers would be much easier if it was all on one screen. Currently, it allows us to select, but shows "Location is not valid."

  13. Let students book a weekly appointment for the whole semester even when the system is to allow students to boo a session only up to 14 days in advance. For students who want to book weekly for the whole semester it is a real hassle to have to come back every week or two to rebook and maybe find their time has been taken. However, the 14 day limit is important to prevent students who book only every now and then to book too far in advance and then forget. We know the system sends reminders, but students often do…

  15. We offer a variety of services that take place in various rooms, not just in our center but across campus. I would be great to have the options to input room locations to specific content areas so that when students get the reminder email they know where the workshops or tutoring sessions is located.

  17. Make a sign-in link for in-person sessions. Useful for larger group in-person tutoring sessions in locations outside of the tutoring center. Kiosk link doesn't work because we have SSO. Virtual sign-on link doesn't work because it's for an in-person session. Would be perfect if virtual sign-on link could have an alternative to sign-in students in for in-person sessions without having to launch an online session. Having a tutor set up a kiosk on their laptop for 15-50 people to sign-in is not user-friendly. We're using a Google Form to circumvent this and then adding them in later via a session…

  18. We would like to be able to set specific appointment length times (or start length times) by different Services. For example, we do academic coaching for 30 minutes and tutoring for 60 minutes. Right now, we only have one option for starting services and that time has to be all the same length. We have the ability to create appointments that are different lengths but b/c they are different we can’t actually schedule them. If we have starting services every 60 minutes, then for our 30 minute appointments (like coaching) when we go to schedule, it will only show appointments…

  19. It would be great to have a default recurring setting by service. That way whether the student books online or the center schedules it for student, if the pick a service that is weekly recurring (like tutoring and academic coaching meeting), it will automatically schedule it as recurring through the end of the semester. Right now, we have it limited so that if students book online themselves for these types of services, they can only see a week out and will schedule a one time appointment. The center then must run reports to see which students booked online for a…

  20. The Attendance by Class report currently only allows you to filter by Location, but it would be really nice to have the filter entitled "Locations and Services" so that you can combine services from different locations.
