When you have a concern with a particular student, raise a flag to communicate your observations.

Raising a Flag

1. In Starfish, click on the Students tab.
2. Find the appropriate student by searching for the student’s name, or by using the Connection drop down to view your students by connection (adviser, instructor, specific class, etc.).
3. Click on the student’s name and select Flag. Only instructors are able to raise flags.
   1. The Flags displayed will depend on your connection with the student.
   2. For the Flag you raise, be aware of who can see the specific item. After you select a specific tracking item, you will see Student View and Permissions. Make sure the comments you include are appropriate for the audience that will read them.
   3. When finished, click Save.
