Courses-in-Touch (CIT)

Courses-in-Touch provides instructors with electronic access to students in their classes. Access requires a PennKey and password, and you must be listed as the instructor for the course. CIT features:

1. Class lists for each of your classes. Provides name, e-mail address, major, picture, and academic advisor for each student in your class. Each list also provides a link to the listserv for the class, which enables you to send e-mail to all enrolled students.

2. Course Problem Notices (CPN). Enables you to alert a student in your class via e-mail to potential problems that could impede their academic success. CPNs can also be sent to relevant support services, including the students' academic advisor.
