Generate consent links
This article explains how to generate and track student consent for cloud storage of evaluation data. It applies to instructors.
Send consent requests by email
- Go to Settings → General → Consent Management.
- Select your course from the course filter.
- Select Generate Consent Link for the course (if you have not already).
- Select Email next to a student to send that student a consent request, or use the bulk email action to notify multiple students at once.
Each student receives an email with a personal link to the consent form. Students complete the form in their browser — they do not sign in to SpeechGradebook. Status updates automatically in the consent table when they respond.
Make sure each student on your roster has a correct email address before sending requests. See Manage rosters.
Evaluations before consent
Until consent is recorded per your institution's rules:
- Evaluations may be held locally and not written to the database.
- You do not need to re-run an evaluation after consent is collected — results are preserved and become available when consent is confirmed.
See Consent and data storage for the full model.
