Where do I log into REVIEW?

REVIEW can normally be accessed via your Subject’s main menu in UTSOnline. Alternatively, you can access the REVIEW website directly. Both staff and students log in via the same page.

Instructions for Subject Coordinators on how to add a link to REVIEW in UTSOnline can be found in the guide to Adding a link to REVIEW in a UTSOnline Subject.

What username and password should I use to log in to REVIEW?

You should use your UTS staff or student ID and related password to log into REVIEW.

I tried to log in to REVIEW and received the error message “Login failed.” How can I fix this?

There are a number of reasons why you may not be able to log in to REVIEW:

  1. Your UTS staff or student account has not been activated. You can activate your account on the My Account account activation page. If you can log into your UTS email account then your UTS account is already active.
  2. REVIEW is not opening in its own tab or window. REVIEW may not process your login attempt correctly in some browsers unless opened in a new window. If using this link to access REVIEW is successful please contact your Subject coordinator and ask them to set REVIEW to open in a new window.
  3. Your username and/or password is incorrect. Please close the browser window before attempting to log in again. If reopening your browser fails to resolve the issue then please reset your password.
  4. If you are still unable to log in to REVIEW please request help from IT via ServiceConnect.

Additional reasons why Staff may not be able to log in to REVIEW:

  1. Your staff account is inactive in REVIEW. This may happen if you are employed on a contract basis and there has been a gap in your employment. If you have had a gap in your employment then please contact your Faculty Learning Technologist to activate your REVIEW account.
  2. You have a temporary staff ID. Temporary staff IDs begin with a lower-case “m” (e.g. m123456). Temporary staff IDs cannot be used to access REVIEW. Please contact your faculty to obtain a standard staff ID.

I tried to log into REVIEW and received the error message “Successive failed attempts. Please try again later.” How long should I wait before I try again?

If you have been locked out please wait 15 minutes before trying to log in.

REVIEW will temporarily lock out users after 3 failed login attempts within a 5 minute period.

How long can I leave my REVIEW session inactive for?

If left inactive your REVIEW session will automatically time out after 1 hour. If you plan on leaving your computer for an extended period of time, please always lock your screen or save your work and log out of REVIEW.

  • 2017 Spring and Summer subjects will be available by Wednesday the 14th of June 2017

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.

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

Tasks lock when a student has been marked (including stu_dent). This is to ensure that assessment criteria are not accidentally changed while marking is in progress.

Tasks can be unlocked by anyone with Faculty administrator or higher access. Please request help via ServiceConnect to unlock a task.
