Student Teaching Evaluation of Performance

In Student Teaching courses, there are assignments that require you to fill out a Student Teaching Evaluation of Performance (STEP) in Adobe Sign.

NOTE This process does NOT use the Document Management Application in the portal. No mentors are involved with the STEP form, and students will receive a copy of their completed form via email only. The completed form is not available for download within the GCU portal. 

Process

  1. Start by clicking on a link provided in your assignment. It will take you to a web form hosted in Adobe Sign.
  2. After filling out all of the required information, you should click on Click to Sign at the bottom.
  3. A verification email will be sent to the email address you provided in the form.
    • If the verification email does not come through, it is possible that you entered the email address incorrectly.
  4. Once the email is verified, a completed copy of the form will be sent to the your email as a PDF that you can upload to Halo Learn.
    • If you do not receive the completed form via email after verifying your email and it has been over 24 hours, please contact GCU Technical Support.
NOTE The emails come from adobesign@adobesign.com. If you are having trouble receiving the email, try adding it to your Safe Senders, and check your Junk/Spam folders.
