We apologise for the unavailability of Eviews.
We applied for a re-issue of our licence for Eviews in order to update our servers.
However the publishers have ceased to support Eviews 5, forcing us to upgrade to a newer version of Eviews.
We would not normally plan to upgrade during term time, but have no choice at this time.

I, Kenneth, am now lobbying the Heads of Departments to get the go-ahead to buy a new licence.

There are two ways:

a) if you are using an email client (e.g. Outlook, Thunderbird) Click on “More Options >” in the message

and you will see the Google Calendar in the web view.

Then Click on “Find a Time” and you will see the proposeed meeting ghosted over your calendar at the suggested time

2) If you use the web interface for reading your mail, you will notice (in your inbox) a calendar icon between the subject and the date click this to see a usefully laid out invite which includes your agenda items around the proposed event

As a user of University computing and information services it is your
responsibility to be familiar with the IT Code of Practice and the
Regulations on the Use of Computing Facilities.

In particular your attention is drawn to the need for password
security. It is important, for your own protection and the security
of University systems, that you choose a strong password for your
University account and that you never disclose it to anyone else. The
University’s policy on passwords can be found in the IT Code of
Practice; to help you follow this policy please read the web page on
passwords.

You are also reminded of the threat posed by phishing. Phishing
refers to a type of fraud, in which people try to trick you into
revealing your username and password or other information, like bank
details. You should never respond to an unsolicited request for your
University username and password, whether by phone, email or webpage,
no matter how convincing or intimidating the request may be. Further
information can be found on the Phishing web page.

If you want to buy your own copy of Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007, you can get it for <£50
from our lovely partners at PUGH

However, you should download and install Mozilla Firefox as your internet browser first (this is because part-way through the installation of Macromedia Authorware, you will be prompted to select a Netscape-compatible browser).

Next, download and install Authorware.

Using Firefox, log in to MOLE, and run the BPP/EQL software.

If you are prompted to install Authorware again, do so and restart Firefox.

Here’s a graphic if you need it

All the School Handbooks (UG, MSc and MBA) have an appendix giving details of how to use APA and these have been updated for the sixth edition. Second and Third year students should check their handbooks (via Mole) for updates

There is also an online guide to APA 6 for students which is available on the Library web pages. It can be found at

https://librarydevelopment.group.shef.ac.uk/shef-only/referencing/management_harvard.html

As APA6 is the standard for students in the School I suggest that it is not helpful to ask students to use a different variation of the Harvard method.

All new students receive a copy of the Handbook. Handbooks are also placed on the MOLE level websites for UG students and continuing students will be sent an e-mail advising them of the updating of the UG Handbook.

For more info see: http://www.shef.ac.uk/cics/muse/myfilestore.html

and for a quick reminder: http://www.shef.ac.uk/emits/help/muse/Myfilestore.pdf

Cics will NEVER ask for your username and password.
