Surveys and Quizzes

We were asked to create a survey or quiz for our course, and I decided I would use Survey Monkey. In the past I have used Quia (I've forgotten my username and password though, so if I'm going to use it again, it's another account for me!), Hot Potatoes, and a couple of other sites. However, even though our College has a Survey Monkey account, I've never created a survey using it. For this assignment, I set up my own account ( a free one, which I later found out only allows 10 questions) and typed in some of the questions I wanted to use as an end-of-course survey. It looked quite nice when it was finished, and I know Survey Monkey is easy to fill in. Because Survey Monkey only allowed 10 questions, I ended up using the survey in BlackBoard 9.1 which has the advantage of showing me who took the survey and who did not (although not which survey belonged to whom) - this enables me to give points for the activity and encourages higher participation.

Here's my Survey Monkey survey, for what it's worth! http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/JG7XR39
