Post a suggestion and give 360 feedback

Suggestions is your district’s board. Post an idea or a problem, upvote what your colleagues asked for, and give each other anonymous feedback on the 360 feedback tab. Nobody outside your district sees any of it.

To open it:

1. In the rail, open Workspace.
2. Under Learning, press Suggestions.

It opens on Board.

Post a suggestion

To post one:

1. Press the box that reads Suggest something for and your district’s name.
2. Write it under Your suggestion in one line.
3. Add what it would change for you under Details, if you want to.
4. Pick New idea, Improvement, Something broken or Question.
5. Press Post suggestion.

It goes on the board straight away with 1 upvote, yours. The title takes 3 to 120 characters, and the details up to 4,000.

As you type the title, the board looks for posts that ask for the same thing. When it finds one, it lists it under Someone may have asked for this already. Press Upvote beside it, followed by its count, to back that post instead of splitting the votes.

Every suggestion is anonymous. The app shows nobody who wrote it, district admins included. Your own posts read You (anonymous).

Vote and comment

• Press the arrow beside a post to upvote it. Press it again to take your vote back. Nobody sees who voted.
• Press a post to open it. Write under Add a comment and press Comment.
• Top puts the most upvoted first, and New the latest. Show starts on Active, which hides posts marked Done or Not planned.

Note that a comment carries your name. Only the post itself is anonymous.

Follow what happens to it

A suggestion moves through Open, Planned, In progress, Done and Not planned. Your district admins and your district’s leader set it. An agency manager can’t.

Your bell tells you when your own suggestion changes status, and when one you upvoted is marked Done. A new comment doesn’t ring it.

To remove a suggestion of yours, open it, press Delete suggestion, then Delete. Its votes and comments go with it, and it can’t be undone.

Give a colleague 360 feedback

To give feedback:

1. Open the 360 feedback tab.
2. Under Give anonymous feedback, press your colleague’s name.
3. Answer the questions you have something to say about.
4. Press Send anonymously.

Two of the 12 questions are required: the trust score from 1 to 10, and The one thing they need to hear, even if it stings. Each written answer takes up to 2,000 characters.

Before it goes, an answer that reads as a personal attack is flagged with This reads as an attack on them, not on what they do. Rewrite it to say what they did and what it caused, or press Send as it is.

Your colleague’s name then carries Given. Open it again to change your answers, which replaces what you sent, or press Withdraw mine to take them back.

Read feedback about you

Feedback about you shows how many colleagues have answered. Nothing opens until 3 have, and after that answers open in groups of 3, so nobody can tell which one is whose. Your bell rings each time a group opens.

Open it to see your average trust score out of 10 and, under Every answer, as written, each answer word for word. Write summary has AI pull them into one key message.

Your district admins and your district’s leader can read the feedback about you too. Who wrote each answer is shown to nobody.

When your district runs a feedback round, a banner reads Feedback round open until its end date, and your bell and email tell you it has started. You can give feedback any time, round or not. A round only prompts people: answers from before it stay in the results, and each colleague keeps one answer about you until they change or withdraw it.

FAQ

Can a district admin see who posted a suggestion?

No. The app shows nobody who wrote a suggestion or who voted for it.

Can I edit a suggestion after I post it?

No. Delete it and post it again, or add a comment with what changed.

Why does feedback about me say it opens at 3?

Fewer than 3 colleagues have answered. Each answer stays hidden until it’s one of a group of 3.
