How to Respond to Progress Report Requests

Know When a Report Is Waiting

You'll know a request is waiting when:

• The Teaching card on your Home page shows X progress reports to complete.

• You get a reminder. Reminders go out 3, 7, 10, and 14 days after the request.

Each request stays open for 14 days. After that it expires and can no longer be answered.

Shared with your co-instructors: A request belongs to the class section, not just to you. Every instructor of the section, and any GSA assigned to it, can answer it. The first answer closes it for everyone, and the others are told it's done.

Open Your Reports

1. Click X progress reports to complete on the Home page's Teaching card. You can also go to Students → Academic Progress Manager in the side menu and open the Reports tab.

2. Make sure To do is selected at the top. The number next to it is how many reports are waiting.

3. To find a report quickly:
   • Pick a course to show only that class.
   • Type in Search students, courses...
   • Sort by Lowest Canvas score or Most missing to handle the students most at risk first.

Each card shows the student, the course, and their Canvas score, missing work, and last Canvas access, to help you answer.

Fill In a Report

The form is right on the card.

1. Choose the student's Grade (A, B, C, D, F, or N/A).

2. Choose their Attendance.
3. Choose one or more Academic concerns.
4. Optionally, choose Recommendations and add Comments.
5. Click Submit report.

Your typing is kept if you move between pages or search before you submit.

No concerns?

If the student is doing fine, click No concerns, then Submit to confirm. You don't need to fill in the form.

Click Submitted at the top of the Reports tab to see the reports you've answered this semester.

Quick Answers

A report disappeared from my To do list. A co-instructor or GSA may have answered it, or it's more than 14 days old and has expired.

Can I answer with an academic alert instead? Yes. If you send an academic alert for the same student and class while the request is open, the alert answers the report automatically. See How to Create an Academic Alert for a Student.

I'm getting reminders for a report I already answered. Reminders stop as soon as anyone answers the report. If they continue, check the Submitted list, then contact The Hub support through Help and About → Get Help.
