Un-Edited 2008 ASR FeedBack

1. The populated information is appreciated.
2. The selection choices are reasonably comprehensive. If the choices do not apply, the "other" choice is very useful, so that we can capture all of our activity.
3. And so it goes.
4. Buggy - could not add additional service - kept asking me to specify type of student but no place to enter this nor was it even applicable.
5. Consider a distinct, explicitly identified section specifically for extra-institutional lectures/presentations at national/international conferences, and schools?
6. It would seem these types of activities are important to identify in terms of representation
7. Could not always get the program to input data. Extremely frustrating and time-consuming. Do not find application to be user friendly. Lose 2 hours of time just trying to input data. Also, seldom have categories to adequately describe activities of all faculty
8. Data requested, especially hours worked, can be interpreted many ways and is somewhat misleading.
9. Easier to use
10. Every year I have trouble accessing this form on the internet.
11. I also find that much of what I do does not really fit into any of your categories. 
12. Excellent system now, with pre-populated fields; cuts report time in half.
13. For some reason I am unable to enter my activity as co-director of the "Mini-fellowship in the Management of Diabetes in Children" program (Question #4), a CME program for physicians offered through the GME.
14. Found it user friendly
Good survey. User friendly. Great that you provide pre-populated data, and ability to copy info from previous years. 
15. I am not sure why I could not enter anything into question #4 but I placed the information into question #7
16. I believe the summary report still falls short on reporting our real efforts in providing education to medical students/residents/fellows while still providing patient care and research to further our medical fields.
17. I can't fill in any of my noon conferences or IU talks because every time I do it says "enter type of student" which is not one of the data fields.  I have tried multiple times and it keeps giving me the same "must enter type of student" so it takes none
18. I contributed to discussions at the Committee meetings and our Divisions proposals to the CTSI, specifically in developing the Modeling and Simulation section.   (I did not see a place for this contribution) I am expected to have a role in the CTSI review
19. I do not fit into the box well. Sorry but I do so much more than I can report.
20. I don't know how the clinical teaching and service data was populated but only outpatient activities were in the report when I reviewed it.  I added inpatient consultation staffing at all 3 hospitals as well as hours I staffed the new patient clinic at Wishard
21. I had to change my "Inpatient Consultations-MDC" category to "Outpatient Consultations and Procedures-MDC".
22. Additionally, it appeared that "Inpatient Rounding" should actually be categorized as "Inpatient Consultations" for IUH, Wishard, VA and Methodist
23. I have no idea where to put teaching of students who are not enrolled at IU, for example summer students in the laboratory. Or community service projects such as a mentor for the Park Tudor Global Scholars Program or Science Fair Judge.
24. I kept getting prompted for "choose student type" or something thereabouts in the lecture portion.  I didn't see that as an option.  So, I copied last year's entry to work around it.
25. I like having more fields pre-populated.  The service hour's section was wildly off the mark in many places.
26. I like this survey
27. I liked the electronic format, easy to organize and capture info. It would be nice to be able to see the full report before submitting it. Since the content of questions was not known in advance, when I reached the end I realized that some things had not
28. I submitted the Survey each year but it turned up as "not submitted". If the system get some problems in it?
29. I think the data recorded in question #2 would be much more accurate if collected prospectively, or at least as a monthly retrospective.  The assumptions made and averaging done to estimate yearly totals makes these numbers inherently imprecise.
30. I want to thank those that took the time to put this Annual Summary Report format into working order. It is so much better than the old way! Best of all, the pre-population of areas make it very easy for those of us who tend to teach the same classes year
31. I was not sure where to indicate that 80% of my FTE is dedicated to IT work with the roll out of CPOE in Cerner. Thanks.
32. I was on clinical leave of absence for the first 6 months so the reporting of this data is for January to June 2008 only.
33. I was unable to edit one of my selections to indicate that it was peer-reviewed due some error.
34. I wish that IU had a common repository for activities as they occurred, a CV builder and/or Teaching dossier program. This would be very beneficial and would make completing the ASR much easier. I do know of many institutions that have CV programs so that
35. I wish the survey could be shorter.
36. I would appreciate guidance on how to fill out this survey, because I struggled with, or did not know how to answer, almost every question. The primary problem for me is, how do I convey my primary work (80% of effort) in Medical Informatics at Regenstrief
37. I would be willing to participate as a School of Medicine Faculty Officer or on a Standing Committee. I am however non-tenure track and do not know which if any of these activities I am eligible to do.
38. In past years I have been given credit for teaching/directing J210 only once when I have actually taught it both Fall and spring semesters.  I would like for me and my department to get credit for both semesters.
39. In question #7 it states "Include activities such as lectures to residents/fellows (prep-time will be added later)", but I was unable to find where to add the prep-time.
40. Also, it is felt that some credit should be given for grants submitted but not funded
41. It is not clear what is required for some of the questions.
42. It is still hard to find a place to put certain activities.  Also my teaching activities were pre-populated in a course that I do not teach in and no activities were pre-populated in the course I direct and that is my primary teaching responsibility.  I ha
43. It was easier this year
44. It was impossible to enter all CME
45. it would be helpful if this program worked with Mac's
46. It would be helpful if this report could be completed using a Macintosh computer and other internet browsers.
47. It would be helpful to have a "spell-check" feature on this document.
48. It would be nice if there was a section to include invited presentations at local meetings and at other institutions.  Although this may not be included in the 3D model, it could be a useful metric. There did not appear to be a way to correctly designate
49. It would be useful to include a section on grants submitted.
50. It's enough!
51. It's finally getting easier to complete the survey.
52. It's getting much better.
53. Still a few questions where it's difficult to identify correct options. I have noted these.
54. Last year I filled in the lectures and labs I taught in A551.  I taught the same lectures and labs these years, but the boxes were not populated with data, so I just gave a summary lecture, lab and exam contact time.
55. Lists did not populate as well as in past years
56. Loved the addition of the Faculty preference sheet!!!!!!!
57. Much better with more data pre-populated.
58. much improved over previous versions
59. My inpatient activities at Wishard and IU Hospital included 50% of time with residents, and 50% of time with residents and medical students.  The survey in question #2 would not accept these numbers.
60. My main activity is clinical service. Most of the pre-populated service categories are WRONG and cannot be fixed. How is it that I am given credit for inpatient call when I have never done inpatient call? When I try to fix it, there is NO drop down category
61. New data entries are often similar to previous entries.  It would speed this process considerably if there were a way to modify previous entries to add a new one.
62. On publications, if you forget to enter the year, the system will not let you edit the entry.
63. On question #7, I tried to answer it but when I pressed save it wanted me to select "Type of student" as a field to answer. There was no such field so the only way I could get out of the question was to cancel.
64. One of the questions referred to what would be credited for "3D".  It is important to point out the irrelevance of 3D to most surgical-based specialties.  If you want to evaluate our participation in the education of students, residents, fellows and many
65. Overall, this is getting easier to complete over the last few years. I appreciate the efforts to import previous data and available data as much as possible.
66. Please give us access to this report throughout the year.
67. Please include information from the previous year in order for us to save time completing this thing.
68. Please make this available for Macs.  I am not sure how long I will have this pc in my laboratory.
69. Poster presentations at academic meetings should be easier to find and categorize.
70. Pre-populated clinical service entries remain inaccurate.  I left them as is because I have no reference for the validity of the data.
71. Present design improves the ability to edit and enjoy the aspect of pre-populated fields.
72. pretty smooth
73. Program can't do math to add to 100!
74. Question #15 "Research Interest" does not provide appropriate categories for basic research scientists.
75. Question 1 and 15 can't be completed or show up completed.
76. Regarding the following committee list: I am not sure what I am qualified to serve on as I a non-tenure track faculty member.
77. Relatively straightforward to use.
78. Seems to get easier each year.
79. Server was extremely slow and I didn't even get the info from my department.
80. Several of the questions are lacking in flexibility as none of the categories given are accurate.
81. Should link Pubmed system with manuscripts PMID numbers. 
82. Should provide more transparency with linkage between summary reports and allocated resources.
83. Some items should allow multiple choices. For instance in terms of CME activities, often the program is directed towards broad audiences including students, residents, fellows and faculty.
84. Some of the imported information in the Clinical Activity section was incorrect.
85. some parts are a little difficult to understand or fill
86. Survey getting better.  Still looks to me as though the 3D software is not correctly interpreting the clinical rotation data provided by the Department of Medicine -- if this is important, then we ought to review it again.
87. Survey is getting better every year. But I am concerned because I remember completing the ASR last year and there is "none submitted" noted.  Also the Family Medicine Department left me off their list so I only received access to the ASR this afternoon an
88. Survey is improving every year, thank you.
89. Thank you - this was the easiest one to finish yet. Greatly appreciate the pre-population efforts.
90. Not too sure about where CME (that I receive) should go???
91. FEED is listed but nothing else.
92. Thanks for making it possible for some of our faculty to add teaching roles in courses on the Bloomington campus.
93. Thanks for making the process easier by streamlining access to earlier reports and making copying to this years even more straight forward
94. Thanks to Nate Allen for answering my questions and kindly offering to help me submit my ASR during my sabbatical leave.  I felt it was important to document my increased teaching load during 7-1-2007 through 6-30-2008 (both medical and graduate gross anatomy
95. Thanks to Phyllis Cowherd for pre-populating some of the fields - I appreciate it!
96. The annual summary report tool is very straightforward to us.  This is evolving into a very user friendly system for collection of this information.
97. The ASR should be made compatible with other web browsers besides Internet Explorer.
98. The design of the survey makes it easier than before.  Thanks.
99. The format of the survey makes it very difficult to report teaching with undergraduate students and with graduate students who are not research based (e.g. M.S. pathologists' assistant students).  Some sort of open frame from describing contributions that
100. The Non-compete info was requested again this year even though it said it was a one - year only question!
101. The outcomes listed are patents, publications and honors/ awards.  It is well known that the ASR information is collated and used to manage University/SOM support for departments.  For those of us who labor at the bedside in the earnest care of patients a
102. The process for submitting this information becomes easier each year.
103. The survey is getting better and better each year---- kudos to all!
104. The survey is much improved but there needs to be a mechanism for each faculty member to save/print his/her entire report easily for his/her records.
105. Also there needs to be a mechanism for assuring that faculty members are given due credit for the than
106. There are errors in grant pre-population- grants funded are not all reported and the FTE% are not pre-populated
107. There are reporting errors. The database says I provided clinical care at Wishard - which I have not done in 10 years. It had not activity for Bone Marrow Transplantation.
108. The dissertation committees provided by MECA are out of date - there are students
109. There is a section for formal mentoring.  What about "informal mentoring"?  For example, helping a resident/student with a presentation (that does not go for publication).
110. There is no add-on tab for CME teaching (Q#4). So I added my CME teaching responsibility to Q#1 formal course teaching.
111. There is still no opportunity that I can detect for reporting my teaching in other IUPUI and Allied Health Professions schools.
112. There still is no question pertaining to "grant proposals submitted", which is the majority of my job.
113. There still seems to be no obvious heading/place to record NIH or other grants submitted.  R01s and other grant preparation consume a prodigious amount of faculty time, and I believe that this deserves to be listed with its own heading, and not under 'other'.
114. This form is much better than in previous years. Congratulations!
115. This form, with previous responses already entered and with pre-populated information from the CME office, is much easier to complete than were the old forms that asked for numbers of hours in 30 different categories. It takes less time to do and is less
116. This is much more user friendly, than previous years
117. This report should capture Clarian Related Committees such as professional standards and Quality Practitioner Committees.
118. UPL contributions from Medicaid RVUs should be noted.
119. This survey does not address, very well, the activities of the undergraduate Health Professions Programs.  Many questions do not apply or do not fit.
120. This survey doesn't adequately capture time/effort of on-call responsibilities.
121. This survey is poor at evaluating the amount of time spent with residents and students. Its primary focus appears to be in a formal setting i.e. classrooms or lectures. Through out the day I spend time with the residents and students together in the OR.
122. This survey took much longer than was suggested.  The more publications, grants, lectures, etc., that one does, the longer it takes.  Also, there are many small flaws in the program that need correcting.
123. Took 2 hours to complete.
124. Unable to mark question #1 or #15 as done. I have no idea why
125. Very difficult to input journal publication data. PubMed ID would be better instead of the current format. It took me 2 hours just to input this data.
126. Very easy as it is pre-populated.
127. Well done.  I like being able to review/import/update previous year's entries.  Many are continued from year to year.
128. Why don't you ask for research awards?   It's the biggest part of what I do. I was the PI on 2 new RO1s, a new UO1 and a training grant this year.   Where is that captured?
129. Works Well. Even MAC OS 10.5 under Firefox with no problems.
130. Would it be possible to leave next year's survey open throughout the year so items could be added continuously
131. Would recommend a question specifying length of time spent in faculty position (important for new hires) during the academic year
132. You need to provide a greater ability to modify the survey to reflect the activities we do in Bloomington.
133. You should allow access to administrative personnel to populate the fields from our CVs and biosketches. Like in ERA commons, the pi should still be the only one allowed to send the info (press the send button). The amount of time to copy and paste in each question.
