Creating custom surveys allow students to engage in their course, on the go, in any way a professor chooses. By designing a custom survey, a professor can ask students anything from, “What did you think about the new exercise we tried out in course today? Was it worth your time? Why or why not?” to a series of questions to summarize a lecture given in course on any day.
With a custom survey, professors have the freedom to choose what they ask as well as how many questions they ask their students.
This resource is valuable in summarizing coursework and gaining insight on students’ opinions.
Custom surveys also provide value for their ability to hide responses from other students to prioritize privacy and encourage honest feedback. Students are also able to respond through video, audio, and text comments to further allow for accessibility in the use of this function.
Incorporating “Custom Surveys” into your course can look like this:
Asking students how they are understanding and working through coursework before beginning course to ensure that all students are on the same page or to assess if any subject matter needs further attention.
Asking students’ opinions on new activities introduced to the course.
Asking students to recap questions after course to assess engagement and overall subject comprehension.
Asking students questions to count towards attendance or participation grades.

Add Tags and Choose Response Types to your Post
After your questions are finalized, add tags to the post to help organize the flow of the course's posting feed.
Before sharing, there are options to select the types of responses allowed under the survey and the option to hide to promote unbiased responses if desired.
Post to your Course
When the survey is up to your preferences, select either “Post to Course” or “Post as String.”
“Post to course” will share the survey with all students and instructors registered for the course. Students will receive push notifications that the survey has been shared.
“Post as string” allows you to select which students or instructors are able to see, respond to, and receive push notifications when the survey is shared.
When you select share, you will receive a pop-up post indicating that the post has been successfully posted.
