During Survey Creation

For information on how to add students during Survey Creation, visit the Creating and Editing Surveys help page.

After Survey Creation

There are two ways to add students after a survey is created.

Individual

The first way is to add an individual student via the "Add Individual" button found on the Survey Editor Page.

'Add Individual' Button on the Survey Editor Page

Input your student's information and select what team they will be in via the "Team ID" field. If you wish to place them in a new team, select "Other Specified Below" and input a new ID in the "Other Team ID" field that is not shared by an existing team. Then click "Save" or "Save and Return."

Student Editor
Multiple New Students

To add Multiple new students, the most effective way is to create a CSV file of your students and upload it here. You can find guidelines for the CSV file format in the technical documentation.

Once you are done formatting the CSV, click "Choose File" and select your document. Then click "Replace" (if you wish to replace existing students with the students in your file) or "Append" (if you want to add students and keep your existing ones). Please view the image below for reference.

'Replace' or 'Append' Students

Then click "Replace" (if you wish to replace existing students with the students in your file) or "Append" (if you want to add students and keep your existing ones). Please view the image below as reference.

Student Editor

After your students are added to your survey, you have the option to edit some of their information, as well as manage their access to the class.

To edit a specific student's information, navigate to the Survey Editor page and click on their name in the table at the bottom of the page.

Survey Editor Page

This will take you to the Student Editor page displayed below.

Student Editor Page

To edit student information, simply delete the old information, type in the new information, and click "Save" or "Save and Return."

This page also allows you to perform the following actions via the three buttons in the bottom right corner:

Delete Students

Clicking this button removes the student and their answers from your survey. This does not delete their CATME account. It is possible to add a student back after deleting them, but their answers will be cleared and they will need to retake the survey.

Purge Survey Answers

Clicking this button will clear a student's answers from your survey. Once purged, your students' answers cannot be recovered and they will need to take the survey again.

Allow Survey Re-entry

Clicking this button will allow a student to re-enter the survey and change the answer.

Bulk Student Selection

Bulk student selection allows you to delete multiple students, clear the survey answers of multiple students, or allow multiple survey students to re-take your survey.

To access Bulk Student Selection, click "Edit Students" from the Activity Editor Page.

Click 'Edit Students' from the Activity Editor Page

This will lead you to the page below. To select multiple students, click the boxes next to their names.

Edit Students Page

Once you have selected their names, click "Delete Students", "Purge Survey Answers", or "Allow survey re-entry" to delete multiple students, clear the survey answers of multiple students, or allow students to re-take your survey respectively.

Edit Students Page

NOTE: Once you delete a student, purge their answers, or allow them to re-enter the survey, you cannot undo your actions.

Student to TA

If you have TAs who have CATME student accounts, you can request a Dual-Access account by emailing licensing@catme.org.

If you are trying to add a TA who doesn't have a CATME student account, please have them request an Instructor Account, and mention the fact that he or she is a TA of your course in the Comments of the request form.

After your TA has an instructor account or a Dual-Access account, you will need to delegate them into your survey.
