How to Setup a Feedback Activity v2

Note:  You need Teacher or Manager access before you can perform this action.

The feedback activity module enables a teacher to create a custom survey for collecting feedback from participants using a variety of question types including multiple-choice, yes/no or text input.

Feedback responses may be anonymous if desired, and results may be shown to all participants or restricted to teachers only. Any feedback activities on the site front page may also be completed by non-logged-in users.

Feedback activities may be used

• For course evaluations, helping improve the content for later participants
  
• To enable participants to sign up for course modules, events etc.
  
• For guest surveys of course choices, school policies etc.
  
• For anti-bullying surveys in which students can report incidents anonymously

Step 1: To start making changes on your course page, toggle the Edit Mode on.

Step 2: Once the edit mode is activated, click on Add an activity or resource.

Teachers may restrict students from accessing lessons and resources based upon a set of conditions. These conditions may be based on whether an activity has been completed or not, date restrictions when lessons can commence, a specified grade to be achieved, a certain user profile, or a set of nested restrictions based on the below settings.
