Field

Description

Seq

Sequence number used to organise comments.

Topic

Topic or category that the comments relate to.

Rating

Assessment rating for an assessable staff comment.

Comment

The comment that is displayed if the student achieves the rating for the topic.
To personalise the comments, either use:

  • ? to replace the student's name in the output
  • the male pronoun so that the correct pronoun is applied based on the student's gender.

    Depending upon their usage, gender-specific pronouns are:
  • he or she
  • him or her
  • his or her
  • himself or herself.


    Note: The female possessive pronoun has two versions (her, hers) where the male has only one (his), which can cause ambiguity when converting. Consequently, the pronoun his is always converted into her. You may need to correct this to hers in some comments.
