GLOBE could you change the Greendown back to what it was last year where students could define their own sites than enter their data. Now I have to define 2 sites for each student then enter their data, which is very time consuming. Students should be able to define their own sites.

Student's need access to define all types of sites. The point is to have students take ownership of their own data, then they need to be able to submit all their own data and access all their own data once it is submitted. As I understand the new data entry tools are coming up soon, hopefully they will return site data entry to students!

Thanks for the input Tim. I'm looking into this, but data entry is tied to the privileges on the new Liferay website. However, I believe that as the new website site still uses the old classic data entry system site creation is still tied to the school organization. We will do some testing, check with the Website technology partners Raytheon, and get back to you with a definitive answer, and if needed I will submit request to review student account data entry policy.

Folks, I looked into this and students were able to create site in the Classic system. The policy is the same moving forward, and I have put in a request for the website to be modified to support student site creation. I will update everyone with a news item once that feature is available again.

Student accounts can now create data entry sites.
