This article is intended for Faculty and Staff users of Starfish.

Starfish allows instructors, advisers, and other roles to provide feedback to students at any time of the semester through the Flag and Kudos buttons. Each role provides access to a different set of Flags and Kudos. For example, only Instructors and TAs can provide feedback about a student's progress in a course.  

Flags and Kudos are available at all times, and can be raised at any time of the semester.
