00:00:00,706 --> 00:00:01,816
>> Hello and welcome.

2
00:00:01,966 --> 00:00:06,036
Thank you for viewing this SONA systems
tutorial intended for instructors.

3
00:00:06,916 --> 00:00:11,186
This tutorial will teach
instructors first how to set up

4
00:00:11,186 --> 00:00:13,526
and maintain a course in the SONA system.

5
00:00:14,116 --> 00:00:18,596
Second, communicating SONA system
information to students in your course.

6
00:00:19,286 --> 00:00:23,466
Third, how to download the research
credit reports from the SONA system.

7
00:00:24,626 --> 00:00:32,156
To set up courses in the SONA system, e-mail
the SONA administrator at sonasfsu@gmail.com

8
00:00:32,576 --> 00:00:39,416
with an e-mail containing your full name,
SFSU ID, e-mail address, and the information

9
00:00:39,416 --> 00:00:41,946
about the classes you would
like to put up on SONA.

10
00:00:42,426 --> 00:00:48,926
Include the course name and number, for
example SCI 690, as well as the maximum number

11
00:00:48,926 --> 00:00:50,996
of credits students may earn in the course.

12
00:00:51,936 --> 00:00:56,296
Please provide students with a brief
explanation of SONA in the course syllabus,

13
00:00:56,556 --> 00:00:58,796
similar to the sample being shown on screen.

14
00:00:59,446 --> 00:01:04,346
You will also need to provide students with
a physical copy of the SONA student FAQ

15
00:01:04,346 --> 00:01:10,056
and inform them about any alternatives
they can complete in place of SONA credits.

16
00:01:10,056 --> 00:01:12,436
Students who are new to the
SONA system will benefit

17
00:01:12,436 --> 00:01:15,446
from watching the student
SONA instructional videos.

18
00:01:16,286 --> 00:01:20,876
To see how many credits students in your
course have earned, click course reports

19
00:01:20,966 --> 00:01:23,226
from the menu bar at the top of the main screen.

20
00:01:23,736 --> 00:01:28,606
Locate the course you are pulling the report
for and click all participants/students.

21
00:01:29,366 --> 00:01:33,826
The following screen lists all students who
have indicated they are enrolled in that course.

22
00:01:34,246 --> 00:01:37,296
If you do not see the specific
student that you are looking for,

23
00:01:37,546 --> 00:01:42,196
then that student has not logged in or has
not added your course to their profile.

24
00:01:42,656 --> 00:01:48,666
The column credits earned for course indicates
how many SONA credits the student has allocated

25
00:01:48,666 --> 00:01:49,436
to your course.

26
00:01:50,136 --> 00:01:52,646
Note that students may be
enrolled in multiple courses

27
00:01:53,146 --> 00:01:56,826
so their overall credits earned may
be higher than their credits earned

28
00:01:56,826 --> 00:01:58,446
for the course that you will use.

29
00:01:59,106 --> 00:02:02,826
If a student's credit completion
report is inconsistent

30
00:02:02,826 --> 00:02:07,226
with what they say they participated in,
please inform them that we ask researchers

31
00:02:07,226 --> 00:02:12,306
to award credit for in-person studies
within 48 hours and to award credit

32
00:02:12,306 --> 00:02:14,266
for online studies within one week.

33
00:02:14,266 --> 00:02:18,226
If it has been longer than this,
students should e-mail the researcher

34
00:02:18,286 --> 00:02:19,796
to request the credit be awarded.

35
00:02:20,506 --> 00:02:24,846
Contact info is listed as the
researcher on the SONA study listing.

36
00:02:25,356 --> 00:02:29,556
If the researcher does not respond, the student
should then e-mail the SONA administrator

37
00:02:29,916 --> 00:02:33,016
at sonasfsu@gmail.com.

38
00:02:34,396 --> 00:02:38,436
To view a list of students who have
completed the required number of SONA credits

39
00:02:38,436 --> 00:02:42,506
for your class, navigate to the
course reports page and click

40
00:02:42,506 --> 00:02:45,456
on the section option, completed participants.

41
00:02:46,026 --> 00:02:49,016
The following page will generate
a list of students.

42
00:02:49,706 --> 00:02:54,026
This report can be downloaded in CSV
format or printed from your browser.

43
00:02:55,456 --> 00:02:58,666
This concludes the training on
instructor accounts in the SONA system.

44
00:02:59,276 --> 00:03:01,276
