Step 5: Emailing Site Supervisors
FieldX provides several ways to communicate with Site Supervisors directly from the platform.
Sending a Reminder Email
To send a reminder email to a Site Supervisor:
- Navigate to the Sites tab.
- Click on the site that the supervisor is a part of.
- In the modal that opens, go to the Supervisors tab.
- If the supervisor has never logged in, you will see an arrow icon next to their name. Click it to send a reminder email.
Checking Assignment Submissions
To see who has and has not submitted their work for a particular assignment:
- Go to your Cohort.
- Navigate to the Assignments tab.
- Click View on the assignment you want to check.
- You will see a breakdown of who has submitted and who has not.
Using the Remind Button
From the assignment view, you can click the Remind button next to any student or faculty member to send them an email reminder about their outstanding submission.
Important Note About Spam Filters
If a Site Supervisor is receiving an email from FieldX for the first time, the email may end up in their spam folder. To prevent this, have your students let their Site Supervisors know ahead of time to check their spam folder and move FieldX emails out of spam if needed.
