Evaluate Navigation: A New Look and Feel

Evaluate is getting a refreshing new navigation experience. The updated layout makes the platform easier to use and moves it closer to accessibility standards.

All navigation now appears on the left side of the screen, organized into five sections: Setup, Reporting, IDEA Resources, Institutional Data, and Settings. Users can expand or collapse the navigation bar based on personal preference, making it easier to focus on relevant content.

The Evaluate screen for an Administration titled "new" showing the navigation menu on the left, with the sections Setup, Reporting, IDEA Resources, Institutional Data, and Settings.

Evaluate takes users directly to the Administrations page after login. If a user doesn't have access to Administrations, Evaluate opens the first page they can access instead. For example, users with access only to Faculty Reports go straight to that page.

Setup

This section is where users build surveys, configure administrations and mailing campaigns, and manage user permissions for reporting and site access.

Reporting

This section is the central hub for creating reports, including Faculty Reports, Question Mean Analysis, Response Rates, and the Custom Report Builder.
