Learning Environment Survey (LENS) FAQ - For ADAs
Where do I access reports for data retention?
Reports will be available the day after grades are due each semester. An email notification of the report release will be sent from provost@uwlax.edu on the day of the report release. A link in the email will go to the Explorance Blue dashboard; you can also access this dashboard at any time to see a history of any released reports.
Website: https://uwlax.bluera.com/uwlax/ (login with NetID and password, with Okta authentication).
How do I download full LENS reports for a semester?
- Login to Explorance Blue: https://uwlax.bluera.com/uwlax/ (login with NetID and password, with Okta authentication).
- Click on “View the LENS Full Individual Report <<TERM YEAR>> Report”
- Then “Select All” > “Download PDF”
Save the PDF files in the department's agreed upon location with appropriate permissions. Purge files at the required time.
Can I search for a specific instructor’s report or a specific course/s?
Yes. Click into the report area for the desired term and enter something in the search field to narrow down what you are looking to find.
What does Threshold Status mean?
On the report list, threshold status refers to the defined threshold for the number of responses needed to generate a report.
- If the status under the "Threshold Status" says "Not Met", that means the course did not receive enough responses to generate a LENS report.
- For full reports, at least 1 response is necessary to generate a report.
- For summary reports, at least 5 responses are necessary to generate a report.
What if I don’t see a report for one of our instructors?
Contact CATL@uwlax.edu.
NOTE as of 1/5/24 - we are reviewing how FYS 100 full reports get distributed to departments – more soon on that.
