Content Creation

The feedback activity enables you to create a custom survey for collecting feedback from students using a variety of question types. Unlike the Survey tool it allows you to write your own questions, rather than choose from a list of pre-written questions and unlike the Quiz tool, you can create non-graded questions. Feedback responses may be anonymous if desired, and results may be either shared or restricted.
