How to Select Pulse Participants
When selecting participants to add to a pulse, the process is straightforward and highly customizable. By using our filters, you have the ability to choose specific groups of students, staff, and families according to criteria such as site, grade, class, and custom groups. The available filters will vary depending on the type of pulse you are creating. The following information will guide you on how to include students, staff, and family members through the use of filters.
Note: In order to create family, staff and student pulses, it is essential to have the permission to Create a Pulse. If you do not possess this authorization, please contact the Kelvin System Administrator of your site.
Note: When creating pulses, you will have visibility over the students, staff, and students assigned to your roster. Specifically, teachers will have access to their assigned students, site staff will be able to view all students/users within their site, and district leaders will oversee the entire district.
