[Using Sakai] evalsys questions

[Adam Marshall]

Apologies if I'm a bit late here.

Do we understand correctly that the system setting 'Lecturer allowed to view results' does not relate to the instructor who sets up the evaluation? In other words, if an instructor sets up an evaluation, he/she can always see the results?

Yes - it means ALL other lecturers who were in the site when the survey was assigned can see the results. The owner can always see results.

We have never seen the option 'Lecturers in the courses to which this survey is assigned' appear in the tool. We are using version 1.2.1, is the feature of assigning evaluations to selected instructors actually implemented in version 1.2.1? Does anyone have similar experiences?

I don't quite follow. If you assign the survey to a site containing people with the "maintain" role (or equivalent) then this option allows them to see the results.

You should not be using v1.2.1, it is very buggy and way out of date. Use 1.3 instead. If you want an account on WebLearn then please ask.

You should also read our fabulous documentation, it is extremely comprehensive but does of course reflect our local configuration so may be slightly different to the CamTools version: https://weblearn.ox.ac.uk/access/content/group/info/step/surveys73.pdf

Subject: [Using Sakai] evalsys questions

Hello,

At Edia, we are testing the EVALSYS tool. We've installed the tool and  although we've studied the documentation on the contrib space, we still have two questions to which we hope someone can provide some answers. Our questions are mainly about the the system setting page on the EVALSYS contrib space:

"Lecturer allowed to view results" This allows other teaching staff members in the CamTools sites to which the survey was assigned to see the survey results. They will see the survey appear on their My Surveys dashboard, and can then view the results. Alternatively, the URL of the results could be emailed round by the person who ran the survey. If this is marked 'configurable', an option "Lecturers in the courses to which this survey is assigned" will appear when the user is creating their survey. If this is marked 'yes', the "lecturers in the courses to which this survey is assigned" will appear automatically ticked when the user is creating their survey.

Are questions are the following:

Do we understand correctly that the system setting 'Lecturer allowed to view results' does not relate to the instructor who sets up the evaluation? In other words, if an instructor sets up an evaluation, he/she can always see the results?

We have never seen the option 'Lecturers in the courses to which this survey is assigned' appear in the tool. We are using version 1.2.1, is the feature of assigning evaluations to selected instructors actually implemented in version 1.2.1? Does anyone have similar experiences?

Any answers would be greatly appreciated!
