View your end-of-term evaluation settings
Typically, settings to your end-of-term evaluations will be view-only. If your Blue administrator has allowed you to adjust settings to your evaluations, see Manage your evaluation settings.
The typical evaluation will go through a sequence of three statuses in the following order:
- Ready - Ready means the evaluation is set to begin. You may still have some optional tasks to complete, so take note of on-screen instructions. This is typically the first stage of the evaluation process.
- Live - The evaluation has started. Your respondents can access their tasks through email, LMS or by other means communicated with them already. If you see a QR code option, you may also display it to encourage your students during in-person or remote sessions.
- Completed - The evaluation has ended and students will no longer be able to fill out the evaluation.
Other statuses you may see:
- Pending - A Pending status means your Blue administrator has made this evaluation optional. No evaluations will be sent out unless you or someone authorized to manage this evaluation launches it. This is typically seen in midterm evaluations.
- Expired - This status will only appear if a Pending evaluation was not launched by a certain date.
- Opted out - You (or someone authorized) has chosen to skip this evaluation. No invitations will be sent and no results will be collected for this evaluation.
- Paused - The evaluation has been paused. This will temporarily prevent students from providing feedback until it is unpaused and goes Live again. This is useful if you started the evaluation prematurely and want to start it again at a later date.
Ready status
Ready means the evaluation is set to begin. You may still have some optional tasks (typically question personalization) to complete, so take note of on-screen instructions. You can complete your tasks and view settings to Ready evaluations by clicking view Settings.
You may view settings before the evaluation goes Live on the start date.
