Foliotek Overview
When the instructors access their Foliotek accounts, they see their Assessment page right away.
The menu on the left displays a Student Search option to search by student and the Faculty
Tools for searching for Course Evaluations, viewing Evaluation, New, and accessing Resources.
One can add “To Do “items to the list in the main area of the page. The drop-down menu under
the down arrow next to the instructor’s name located in the upper right corner of the page will
show three more options: Messages (not utilized by our College), Profile and Sign out.

The personal information under the Profile is entered automatically during the system updates
each semester but the Instructor can add an Alternative email, if necessary, in that view.

The instructor can search for a particular student using the student name or J# in the Student
Search field, but if the student is not enrolled in the instructor’s current course, the instructor
needs to check the “All” radio button to be able to see the historic record of his or her student,
as shown in the image below.

You will see all your Course Sections listed for the time you used Foliotek as shown in image on the
previous page. You will be able to filter your Course Sections by an academic term if you have a
very long list or just scroll down the list and select the Course Section you want to evaluate. You
will see the list of your students in that Section whose programs use Foliotek for the evaluation of
their professional skills. Click the button “
“ to start your evaluation.
If you see that the student has not submitted the right number of files (shown in the square
brackets next to the student’s name and J number), you need to contact the student about this
issue before starting the evaluation.

If you discover that the student’s submissions were incomplete after you begin the evaluation, just
cancel and return back to the Evaluations screen to select another student for scoring.
When you begin the evaluation, you will see the list of Standards you need to check, which can
differ from student to student based on their program and major. Click the Standard to see the
work submitted by the student to that particular Standard.

Standards
NOTE: You can rate one or several Standards and then close the Evaluation without publishing
your scores. Foliotek will allow you to continue your work with this Evaluation later. After you
publish your scores, you still can change them but you will have to click the “
” button and
that will erase all the previous scores. So you will have to completely re-do this Evaluation.

After you click the Standard, you will see all files the student has submitted to it in your course.
You can open and review those files if needed but, in most cases, you are already familiar with
them and can rate the student’s work according to the Standard description on the 4-point scale by
clicking the block underneath the appropriate Scoring Rubric; for instance, “Basic,” as shown in our
example. It will turn green and your score will be recorded. You can add comments for the student
or even attach a document at the bottom of this screen.

When you finish rating all of the Standards in the Evaluation, the screen will prompt you to review
the scores for accuracy and either close the Evaluation and leave it in its tentative state or publish
your scores. To complete the process, click the “SUBMIT EVALUATION & PUBLISH SCORES” button.

After you publish the scores, your screen will show the button “> score next student,” which
