Surveys

What is the Surveys Tool?

Create surveys and use the statistics tools to monitor current course trends, seek opinions, and assess user satisfaction.

Surveys are an excellent way to solicit feedback from users regarding any aspect of your course. For example, they can be used as a method of collecting course evaluations, mid-year reviews, or researching users’ learning style and content delivery preferences.

Accessing the Surveys Tool

The Surveys tool is not one of the links found on the default navigation bar of your in-class CourseLink course site. The Surveys tool will need to be Added to your Navbar.

For Distance Education (DE) courses, the Surveys link appears under the drop-down menu of the Tools link on the navigation bar (provided that the course is using Surveys).
