Viewing Pronouns

Users can’t see pronouns for other users from within Original Course View, but can from within Ultra Course View.

Within Ultra Course View, a user’s pronouns appear:

  • In group assignments, group members can see the collaborators pronouns

  • In Peer Review, users allowed to view the name of the student who made the attempt can view their pronouns under their name

  • Under the course roster, while enrolling users, editing a user, or grating or editing a user’s accommodations

  • In Discussions, under the Student’s name in posts and replies

  • In course Messages

InfoFor more information about Pronouns in Ultra Course View, contact Educational technologies at edtech@uconn.edu or by phone at Students, faculty and staff may edit their profile in HuskyCT directly on the site without help from ITS. If you need help after following this guide, please reach out to edtech@uconn.edu. This edited profile information appears in a name card when clicking on a user’s avatar in a course.

Info

Remember that this profile customization is completely optional, and your changes will be visible to all others in the course. If you wish for certain information to be kept private, do not add it to your profile.

Where will people see this information, and how will it appear?

Your name card will appear almost everywhere you see your avatar. When clicking on someone’s avatar (their icon), a little floating box will appear that contains their information. Click on the little X to close this popup.

...

You will be able to see this floating name card in assessments, the roster and gradebook, Communication Tools, and groups.

If your preferred or chosen name is not appearing in HuskyCT, you will need to change a setting on your NetID management page. See the Changing Your Chosen Name in UConn Directories help article.
