The Evaluations tool allows users with appropriate permission to evaluate work in on a wizard page or in a matrix cell after it has been submitted for evaluation by a participant in the site participant. If you are an evaluator, you use this tool to access the appropriate part of a participant's wizard or matrix, review the work shown there, and provide an evaluation of it.

Evaluators with permission may also use the drop-down menu at the top of each wizard or matrix to access the wizard or matrix of each participant and click on a wizard page or matrix cell belonging to a participant in order to evaluate the participant's work.

As an evaluator, you enter your ratings and comments in on an evaluation form. This form is created by the CIG Coordinator (site organizer or other user in that role). By carefully designing evaluation forms for wizard pages and matrix cells, the CIG Coordinator can incorporate your institution's existing evaluation practices and assessment rubrics, such as evaluation scales and prompts for subjective evaluation, into the process of evaluating wizards and matrices.

To ensure effective reporting and avoid confusion, we strongly recommended that your institution standardize evaluation scales across all wizard the pages and matrix cells and across of all wizards and matrices.

...

The home page contains a list of participant work that is ready to be evaluated. For each wizard page or matrix cell title, the list contains its owner (if you have permission to see the name of the owner), the date the work was submitted, and whether the work is contained in a matrix cell or wizard page.
