NOTE: Only Subject Coordinators and Lecturers can publish and unpublish student results.

  1. Select the Tasks tab and locate the row of the task you want to change
  2. Click the Setting button
  3. Find the Status option and choose either Active or Inactive
  4. Click Save

One of my tasks is locked. Why did this happen? How can I unlock it?

Tasks lock when at least one student’s mark has been published (including stu_dent). This is to ensure that assessment criteria are not accidentally changed after results have been published to students.

Tasks can be unlocked by anyone with Faculty administrator or higher access. Please follow the process for your faculty as listed below:

  • DAB staff: Contact your Faculty Academic Programs office. Selected staff in the DAB APO have the ability to unlock tasks
  • All other faculties: request help from IT via ServiceConnect

When will subjects be added to REVIEW?

Subjects will be made available in REVIEW on the following dates:

  • All 2018 subjects are currently available in REVIEW
  • Minor teaching session subjects will be available at least two months before the first day of the relevant session

Subjects for the Main Calendar and Calendar B will be loaded on the same dates.

Why can’t I see my subjects listed in REVIEW?

IMPORTANT: Please check that you have selected the correct Year and Session when searching for your subject.

If the correct year and session are selected and the subject is not displayed then you have not been allocated a role in that subject.

If you are the Subject Coordinator and you cannot access your subject please follow the process for your faculty as listed below:

  • DAB staff: Contact your Faculty Academic Programs office. Selected staff in the DAB APO have the ability to add staff to subjects
  • All other faculties: request help from IT via ServiceConnect

PLEASE NOTE: IML Learning Technologists are unable to add staff to subjects.

If you are a Tutor, Demonstrator or other staff member working on a subject please contact the Subject Coordinator.

Why aren’t Subjects Learning Objectives (SLOs) listed in REVIEW?

REVIEW does not currently support SLOs. Support for SLOs is planned for a future version.

Student FAQ

One of my subjects is not listed in REVIEW. How can I get it added to my list of subjects?

If your subject is not listed under the Subjects tab in REVIEW

  1. Please check that you have selected the correct year and session
  2. Please check with your Instructor whether the subject has active task available to students. You will not be able to see your subject unless there is an active task assigned to students in REVIEW.

If the answer to both of the above points are YES, please check that you are enrolled in the subject via My Student Admin.

If you are correctly enrolled in the subject in My Student Admin then please contact the IT Support Centre.

I cannot see the Marks for my Task

If you are unable to see the marks for your task, we recommend contacting your instructor for further assistance. They will be able to provide you with information regarding the availability of marks for students. In some cases, instructors may choose to temporary hide grades from students.

I cannot find any task in my subject

If you are unable to find any tasks in your subject, we suggest reaching out to your instructor to inquire about their availability for students. They will be able to clarify whether the tasks are accessible to you or not.
