  1. Science Diversity Center AWalk-Through

  2. What is theScience Diversity Center • Web-based comprehensive one-stop science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) educational resource tool. • eResearch Assistant • eCareer Consultant • eMeeting Rooms • eCluster Development • eResearch Experiences • eLearning Materials

  3. Access Voice-over Help File Access Web Site Enter Conference Center Access Help File

  4. Science Diversity Center - The Web Site Activates Login Screen Search Area Click to Eliminate Column Information Display Area Folders (Manila) Column Expansion Button Drawers (Green) Cabinets (Blue) Re-size Bars

  5. Science Diversity Center – Dissecting the site Login and Search Area buttons Click to execute Desired search Click to get search help instructions Search area Date Login Screen Click to access login screen Toggles Right most two windows on-off

  6. Science Diversity CenterCabinets, Drawers, and Folders Drawers (green) are shown in this area so that they can be expanded to show the Folders (Manila) they may contain. Clicking on the symbol, expands the Folder to show the Records it contains. Clicking on the name of the Drawer it expands to show all the Records that the Cabinet may contain. Once a Cabinet (blue) is clicked, it opens to show the Drawers (green) it contains Cabinets

  7. Science Diversity Center – Dissecting the siteCabinets – Drawers - Folders We obtained this screen by: 1. Opening “eResearch Assistant” Cabinet (shows the five Drawers (green) 2.Opening one of the Drawers (Federal Agency Awards) by clicking on the “+” symbol. Once clicked it becomes “-” and displays the Folders that it contains. 3. The next column (light blue) is a partial listing of the records that the Folder contains. 4. Notice that “My Research Folders” Drawer as well as “My Research Portfolios” include the “Login” folder and you may login from either place.

  8. Science Diversity Center – Dissecting the siteLogin and Registration This is the general Login screen. It is accessed by clicking on “Login” button and then “clicking on “Register”. Complete the registration form and click on the “Submit” button.

  9. Science Diversity Center– Dissecting the site What Happens After Registration and Login 1. Once registered and logged in you may create folders by clicking on “Manage Folders”. 2. The screen shown pops-up. 3. To add a new folder, enter its name in the “Folder Name” area, e.g. Computer Science Once button “Submit” is clicked, the new folder name will appear in the Folder List area, as well as under the “My Research Folders” folder. 4. In the example shown two folders have already been created while a third is ready to be submitted. 5. To delete an existing record, click on it, and a screen appears which allows you to delete the selected record.

  10. Science Diversity CenterDissecting the sitePopulating Folders with Grants and Awards Click on the trash can symbol to remove record from your folder. The steps to populate grants and awards in your personal folders are the following: 1. Click on “My Research”. No folders are shown. 2. Click on “Federal Agency Awards” folder. Once awards are shown on the screen, select the one desired and drag it to “My Research” folder. In the example above the selected award (Condensed Matter Physics) has Been selected. The message shown asks you to confirm the selection. Once confirmed, “My Research” folder color changes to red. 3. Once you have transferred all the desired files, “My Research” folder will indicate this fact by creating the folder “Awards” . In a similar fashion grants may be added.

  11. Science Diversity CenterDissecting the sitePopulating Folders with Grants and Awards Click on the trash can icon to remove record from your folder. Once the process shown in the previous slide is completed, the “Astrophysics” folder will create a new folder called “Awards”. If this folder is opened, as in the example above, the record that was selected is shown. Notice that the icon “garbage can” is used to remove the record from your folder if you so desire.

  12. Navigation Button This “pin” icon toggles between this screen and the one shown in the next slide.

  13. Science Diversity Center The “Pin” icon Now navigating between screens is easier. Point “Arrow” on “Navigation” bar to access previous screen without clicking or move it away to go back to this screen. The original screen can be accessed by clicking on the “pin” Symbol again.

  14. Science Diversity Center Search Functionality • The search tool on the splash page allows one to perform specific and detailed searches on four distinct search variables: • State • University • PI’s name • Program manager’s name

  15. Science Diversity Center Search Functionality The examples below will show the way to use this functionality: 1st Example State:MS This search will locate all grants or awards to the State of Mississippi. In the example shown, grants were chosen. Partial results are shown in the next slide

  16. Science Diversity Center Search Functionality Search performed Output obtained

  17. Science Diversity Center Search Functionality The example below shows the way to use this functionality: 2nd Example This search will locate all the awards to Jackson State University. Partial results are shown in the next slide

  18. Science Diversity Center Search functionality Notice the “:” delimiter Search criteria Search results

  19. Science Diversity CenterDissecting the siteThe “eCareer Consultant” Screen Students, Alumni and employers may enter career enhancement opportunities.

  20. Science Diversity CenterDissecting the siteThe “eEducation Initiatives” Screen Click to access educational awards granted to elementary, high school or middle schools. This Drawer is presently under development. Once completed will include a very comprehensive program on educational resources available to both teachers and students.

  21. Science Diversity CenterDissecting the siteThe “eCluster Development” Screen Click to access various interest-focused knowledge communities. Click to access Message Board shown in next slide

  22. Science Diversity CenterDissecting the siteThe “eCluster Development” Screen-Message Board Message Board allows you to communicate with other members of the cluster community to exchange information on files pertinent to research activities. You must register/login before you may access this facility.

  23. Science Diversity CenterDissecting the siteThe “eResearch Experiences” Screen This Cabinet allows one to access REUs, NSF’s HRD Programs as well as “Career Awards”

  24. Science Diversity CenterDissecting the siteThe “eLearning Materials” Screen STEM areas Opening a STEM area reveals the sub areas Click on any sub Area to see Content shown In next slide

  25. Science Diversity CenterDissecting the siteThe “eLearning Materials” Screen We selected the area Physics and there are three sites with reference material presently available. We intend to continue populating these areas as we collect new material Highlighting any referernce and clicking on its URL below, displays the next slide
