Elements Assessment Module Guide

It is possible to perform bulk updates of various data within the management area of the assessment exercise. If you have already collated review data outside Elements, you may want to bulk import that data into the assessment module. 

Completing bulk updates isn't always straightforward, so please contact rqi@sussex.ac.uk for assistance. We may be able to complete the bulk update for you. 

You can identify bulk update opportunities via these buttons:

  and 

When you click these buttons, the system will provide on-screen guidance. In all cases, you must download a CSV, add/edit information and reupload it. 

Please note, you must input your unit's output selections (either within the exercise or via bulk upload) before you can input/upload your reviews. 

To bulk update item selections or review scores/text, navigate to Menu > Assessment > Manage > Manage Assessments > REF2029 Contributions to Knowledge & Understanding Initial Assessments > click the 3 dots next to EXPORT ALL

To identify individual Users in bulk updates, you will need their either their Sussex username, ID number or Elements Proprietary ID. You can find their Elements Proprietary ID in their Elements staff profile URL (useful if needed for just one User), or in the H-index report located in the Basic Reports section of Elements (shown below) will show all the ID options (username and IDs). If you don't have access to reporting in Elements, contact elements@sussex.ac.uk to see if you can be given access, or email rqi@sussex.ac.uk and we can run this report for you.
