The Mid-Course Feedback survey is designed to collect detailed feedback about how well the course is working. It's an opportunity for faculty to make adjustments during the semester if time allows and, of course, to revise the course for future offerings. It may be offered once at mid-semester (or in some cases more frequently) and, if course correction is implemented, repeated for comparison at semester end.

The Student Feedback survey is designed to collect "fast" feedback and can be used weekly, after each teaching module or unit, or on another cycle deemed appropriate by the instructor.

To administer either or both of these surveys in Blackboard download the package file, import it into your course site, and deploy the survey(s) in a content area of your choice. By using Blackboard to administer either or both of these surveys, you will be able to keep the surveys anonymous and view the collective results quickly and easily. Note that the responses of individuals are not provided in surveys.

To import these tools into your Blackboard course site(s), follow the steps provided in this tutorial. Let us know if you have any comments or suggestions.
