Using OU Campus in a Luminis Portal

Rachel Reuben
Rachel Reuben

The document discusses the creation of a "My First Year" tab in the SUNY New Paltz student portal to help address poor student survey results by making departments less intimidating. It created channels with topics relevant to first-year students and tied them to the content management system OmniUpdate. The challenges of measuring results in Luminis without analytics and developing a management strategy to populate and maintain the content are also covered.
