Starfish gives instructors a convenient way to support student learning and engagement through the semesterly progress survey. We have opened the Starfish progress survey to instructors who have majority first-year, second-year, and transfer students. The progress survey includes five types of tracking items:
- You Are Off to a Strong Start Kudos
 - Attendance Concern Flag
 - Low Test Grade Flag
 - Missing/Late Assignments Flag
 - Tutoring Referral
 
Faculty can also add comments that are visible to students.
Instructors can raise these items in the fall 2023 progress survey until Friday, October 6 @ 5:00 PM.
More information is available on our website: https://www.drake.edu/starfish/.
