Student access to R-world

I was recently given access to the student part of R-world. I was pleasantly surprised by the extensive collaboration/portal/document features it includes. Some notable features:

  • Academic and social event calendars
  • Personal schedule
  • People search
  • Central repository for all course material
  • Forums
  • Workspaces (very useful, you can create a workspace and define people who have access to the workspace. It allows you to pass documents around and discuss issues etc.)
  • Classifieds
  • Resource booking (i.e. break-out rooms)

Although the interface is similar to the one I saw as in the earlier in the “accepted student” version of R-world it appears that all the components used in the “student” version are totally different. Things are more modular/organized/prettied up. It appears that most of my previous issues have been resolved.

I would post a screenshot but it would take a lot of work to blank out all the information I want to keep private. I might post one later.

Note: It would appear that “R-world” has been renamed to “Rotman world” (that or it was always Rotman World but I never realized it).
