What this tool checks
The supervisor comment tracker turns individual comments into editable actions with chapter, category, priority, deadline, evidence requirement, and status, then presents table, filter, summary, and Kanban views. The check deliberately separates structural signals from academic judgment. It looks for supplied sections, explicit relationships, selected statuses, or rule-compatible choices; it does not inspect external files, search databases, authenticate claims, or decide whether an argument is correct. The result therefore answers a narrow question: where does the current plan appear complete enough for closer human review, and where is more information needed? Use the breakdown, not only the headline, because a total can conceal one high-priority omission.
Who this tool is for
It is intended for supervised thesis and dissertation authors who need a temporary, no-account revision board and want an explicit record of what must change before the next review. It works best for a person who already has a genuine topic, project, document, or set of decisions and wants a disciplined self-check before the next conversation. A novice can use the prompts to learn which information matters, while an experienced author can use them as a pre-review control. Supervisors and teams may also use the exported summary as a discussion agenda. The tool is not suitable for making decisions about another person's work without context, consent, and access to the governing requirements.
How to use the tool
Add one comment at a time, translate it into an action category, set a defensible priority and status, record evidence needed, then edit, delete, filter, sort, or move the item as work changes. Begin with the information you can state accurately today. If a field is uncertain, describe the uncertainty rather than inventing precision. Generate the result, read every warning, and inspect the weakest or unresolved areas. Revise the underlying plan or document outside the tool, then run it again to see whether the structural picture changed. Download a private working copy only when useful. Before relying on any next action, compare it with current institutional instructions and ask the responsible reviewer to resolve decisions outside your authority.
Input guide
The comment field may be paraphrased to reduce sensitivity. Chapter should be a stable reference, category should describe the work—clarify, rewrite, add evidence, analyze, format, discuss, or other—and evidence should state how completion will be verified. Concise, specific entries are more useful than copied pages. State the object, boundary, decision, and evidence in direct language. Select “not applicable” only when a requirement genuinely does not apply, not when work is incomplete. Dates should reflect real checkpoints. Do not paste names, participant records, confidential supervisor exchanges, unpublished datasets, credentials, or restricted documents. The browser cannot judge whether you have permission to process information, so responsibility for lawful and ethical input remains with you.
How the result is calculated
All records stay in JavaScript memory for the current page visit. Progress equals completed recorded items divided by total recorded items. Summary counts open high-priority, in-progress, upcoming, and overdue items. Filtering and sorting do not change source records. No automatic local storage, remote account, reminder service, or quality inference is used. Rules are deterministic: the same entries produce the same result. Scores, where present, use the published weights shown in the result table; selectors use explicit point rules; planners assemble defined templates; trackers summarize the records held in memory. No generative model, hidden semantic assessment, remote lookup, user profiling, or acceptance prediction is involved. Rounding can change a displayed whole number by one point. Text length, status, and wording overlap are surface-level structural signals only and must never be treated as measures of truth, originality, scholarly merit, or compliance.
Worked example
A user adds “Clarify why this sample is appropriate” under Methodology, categorizes it as clarify, marks high priority, sets a deadline, and records “revised sampling rationale with two sources” as evidence. After editing the thesis, the user verifies the change and moves the item to completed. In a responsible use of this example, the user would not stop at the generated label. They would open the breakdown, identify the rule that produced the signal, revise the real working document, and ask a supervisor or specialist to assess substance. A stronger second result means only that the entries now meet more of the declared structural rules. It does not prove that evidence is adequate, that a method is feasible, or that an institution will approve the work.
How to interpret the result
The table is the detailed record, Kanban shows workflow state, and the summary highlights workload. A rising completion percentage means more recorded tasks are marked complete; it does not mean the thesis is proportionately better or that feedback was interpreted correctly. Treat “Strong” as a prompt for final verification, not permission to submit. “Good but needs review” means the broad structure is present but specific decisions still warrant attention. “Needs improvement” indicates several material gaps, while “High priority revision” means the current entries are too incomplete for a useful readiness claim. A selector's high, moderate, or mixed fit signal describes consistency among rules, not statistical confidence. A planner or tracker describes organization, not quality. Always read exceptions, removed denominators, assumptions, and warnings beside the headline.
Common mistakes
Tracker users often paste identifiable correspondence, combine many comments into one untestable task, mark work complete without evidence, assign every item high priority, omit chapter references, or leave clarification questions hidden in a rewrite category. Other common errors are pasting a polished paragraph that does not answer the field, selecting “complete” because work has started, using “not applicable” to raise a score, and sharing a public card that reveals private context. Users also compare scores across unrelated projects even though inputs and governing requirements differ. Avoid optimizing language merely to satisfy a character threshold. The correct response to a weak signal is to improve the real reasoning, evidence, or workflow and then have it reviewed, not to add filler.
Recommended next steps
Resolve overdue and high-priority dependencies, verify every completed action in the real thesis, prepare questions for ambiguous comments, download a private record if needed, and confirm substantive responses with the supervisor. Convert each recommended action into an owner, evidence requirement, and realistic checkpoint. Resolve high-priority dependencies before cosmetic work, then verify references, approvals, formatting, and local rules using primary sources. Keep a decision log when an assumption changes. If the result exposes a methodological, ethical, statistical, editorial, or institutional question, escalate it to the person qualified and authorized to answer. A useful final step is to regenerate the result with updated entries and preserve only the private export needed for your records.
Limitations
The tracker cannot interpret tone, decide whether feedback is correct, reconcile contradictory instructions, inspect the thesis, send reminders, sync devices, or restore records after the page is closed without an explicit download. The tool cannot see omissions outside the supplied fields, inspect attachments, verify citations, test data, determine originality, interpret an institution's unpublished rules, or evaluate disciplinary nuance. It can be affected by incomplete, overly broad, or strategically worded inputs. Guidance and official requirements can change after the listed review date. Accessibility, ethics, privacy, authorship, intellectual property, and professional obligations require their own checks. Use the output as a transparent working aid and preserve human responsibility for every consequential decision.
Privacy and data handling
Full comments and evidence notes can be highly sensitive. Public copy, link, social, and PNG actions omit them; CSV and other private downloads may include record details because you explicitly request the file. Processing occurs in the current browser session. Normal form use does not transmit entries to ScholarEase and the result URL carries no input or result state. Public copy and share actions use a generic, privacy-safe summary rather than long entries. Private downloads may contain more detail when you explicitly request them, so review a file before storing or sending it. Printing, extensions, device management, screenshots, and the recipient's systems are outside the tool's control.
Responsible and ethical use
Use the board to make feedback traceable, not to misquote a supervisor, erase disagreement, claim work is approved, or delegate an academic decision to status automation. Do not use a result to misrepresent authorship, manufacture evidence, bypass supervision, pressure a collaborator, conceal uncertainty, or claim compliance. A structure checker cannot validate consent or ethics approval; a selector cannot authorize a design; a readiness score cannot certify acceptance. Cite and describe the underlying sources honestly, keep an audit trail for material decisions, and disclose tool use when required by your institution, publisher, employer, or project policy.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Are tracker records saved automatically?
No. Records exist only in memory for the current page visit. There is no account, remote sync, or automatic local storage. Download a private export before leaving if you need a record.
Can I edit and delete feedback actions?
Yes. Each action can be edited, deleted, filtered, sorted, and moved between not started, in progress, waiting, and completed states. Verify the real thesis change before marking completion.
How is tracker progress calculated?
Progress is completed recorded actions divided by total recorded actions. It measures task status only and says nothing about thesis quality, academic correctness, supervisor satisfaction, or readiness for submission.
Which action categories are available?
The board supports clarify, rewrite, add evidence, analyze, format, discuss with supervisor, and other. Choose the category that describes the next verifiable action rather than the tone of the comment.
Will public sharing include supervisor comments?
No. Copy Summary, social sharing, Copy Link, and the PNG card use generic private-safe result information. A private CSV or JSON download may contain record details because you explicitly request it.
Can the tracker decide whether feedback is correct?
No. It organizes actions and evidence only. Discuss ambiguous, conflicting, ethical, methodological, or substantive comments with the supervisor or another authorized reviewer.
What belongs in the evidence field?
Record how you will verify completion, such as a revised paragraph, added citation, rerun analysis, updated table, or question prepared for discussion. Avoid confidential files or personal identifiers.
How should overdue items be handled?
Check whether the deadline remains valid, resolve high-priority dependencies first, communicate blockers early, and update the record honestly. An overdue flag is a planning prompt, not a judgment.
When is thesis revision support useful?
Support may help when feedback is extensive, contradictory, document-wide, or difficult to translate into clear academic writing actions, provided confidentiality and decision authority are established.
