What is a unique student?

A unique student is determined by the student’s email ID. These ID’s are counted in different ways for the different license types. For example, if two instructors request separate instructor licenses, it is possible that one or more students will be in both classes. The unique student count for each instructor requesting a license will include these shared students, and therefore the unique student ID will be counted towards a licence fee twice. If, however, both instructors decided to purchase a departmental license, their shared students would only be counted towards their unique student count once. 

For more information, see our Finding Your Unique Student Count video.

Can I change the language on a student’s CATME account?

CATME does not have the capability to be operated in a language other than English. Try using Google Translate on the web page. Please keep that in mind that the specific wording of the questions in Peer Evaluations are supported with research, and translating Peer Evaluation surveys may affect the validity of the results.

My student cannot access the survey, but other students can access it.

Please verify that the email you uploaded for the student is correct and that is the same email address the student is using to log in. To correct any problems related to incorrect student email addresses, go to your CATME faculty account class page (click the class on the Quick Summary Page) and edit the student’s email address.

My students believe the people in their teams are wrong.

If Rater Practice is enabled on your survey, there is a good chance that some students did Rater Practice thinking it is the required Peer Evaluation. If so, the student will see the names of hypothetical students instead of their real teammates.

Why are my students not rating their teammates?

If Rater Practice is enabled on your survey, there is a good chance that some students did Rater Practice thinking it is the required Peer Evaluation survey . Make sure the students know how to access the survey to rate their real teammates.

Why am I seeing a blank Quick Summary page?

Once a survey is six months old, it will not be shown on your Quick Summary page. Check the “Show Surveys Older than Six Months” to view surveys that are more than six months old.
