Overview
Notes offer an additional mechanism to jot down information about a student(s), collaborate across Care Units, and create a record of information provided directly to the student. Unlike Appointment Summary Notes, do not default to being visible to students, and notes are not tied to specific appointments, nor are they formatted specifically for specific Care Units. The function of bulk/batch notes is when you want to add the same note to more than one student.
Note: As of Fall 25 MavCONNECT has been rebranded as Navigate360.
Both names refer to to the same system which was implemented in Fall 2023 and took the place of our Starfish-based system.
The Navigate360 Student App is known as Navigate360. Therefore, to reduce confusion, we have rebranded the entire system to simply Navigate 360. Faculty and staff may continue to use "MavCONNECT" when referring to the system; however, know that MavCONNECT and Navigate360 mean the same thing and refer to the same system.
Instructions
1. Log into Navigate360.
2. Using Advanced Search or a list of techIDs, find your group of students:
3. Once you have your Group in the Results sections, Click on the empty square next to “Name” to select all recipients.
Important Note: There is a LIMIT of 100 recipients for bulk notes. If your group is larger than 100, you will need to add notes in groupings of 100.
4. Then, click on "Actions" and then choose "Note." The "Add a Note to Multiple Users" screen will appear:
Notes automatically default to NOT being visible to students in Navigate360 Student. So, if you want the student to see the note check the visibility box on the lower right.
We recommend you do NOT make your note visible only to yourself. Leaving it public will allow others with deeper access to view the note, and this information may help them in their work and support of the student.
Choose a “Note Reason” from the list of choices. “Other” is a good catch-all if you do not see another applicable reason. If you would like us to consider creating a new “Note” reason, email navigate360@mnsu.edu. The system WILL let you add a note without choosing a reason.
5. When you are finished writing your note, click "Save Note."
6. Once you click "Save Note," you should receive this message
7. After adding a note, you can go to a student’s profile to view it, under the Student’s History Tab. The History tab may also be ‘sortable’ to see notes only.
