There are two template messages that you can edit and email to the students. Alternatively you could share them on Moodle. There is one that you can share before the evaluation is to take place and one that you can share after. If you cannot upload them to Moodle, send them to your lecturer and ask them to share the information on your behalf.

Template messages on this page:

  • Information for students before the evaluation
  • Information for students after the evaluation

If you have any questions, or would like any assistance with sending these messages, or with running the evaluations in class, please email evaluations@waikato.ac.nz
