My course feedback view
In "My course feedback" view of the course feedback tool, you can see all your own course implementations for which feedback is collected, i.e. for which a final feedback survey is automatically created and for which you can make mid-course feedback surveys.
At the top of the view, you can filter which course implementations are listed in the view.
The colored filter buttons "Drafts, Upcoming surveys, Active surveys, Waiting for response, Expired" mean the different statuses of the feedback surveys. When the button is green, surveys in that mode are listed. When the button is gray, the surveys in that mode are not displayed in the list.
The survey listing shows the following information about the course implementation and its feedback surveys:
Name, code and date of implementation
Type of feedback survey (end-of-course feedback or mid-course feedback survey), active period of the survey, number of respondents / number of registrants, current status of the survey, for example "Publish the response to the feedback by dd.mm.yyyy"
Symbols (before the name of the survey) describing the current status of the course and surveys are explained behind the question mark button on the page. You can also view an explanation by hovering your mouse over the symbol.
The round buttons at the end of each line are functions whose explanations appear when you position your mouse over the button.
Mid-course surveys
You can create surveys during the course, the content and timing of which you can completely choose yourself. In course feedback, you should emphasize topics that you can and will react to during the course.
- You can prepare and schedule surveys even before the course begins.
- You can share the survey link to, for example, in the learning material or an assignment.
- If necessary, you can activate the survey for students immediately by pressing the "Activate now" button (a barb icon) in the survey list
End-of-course feedback
At Aalto University, feedback is automatically collected from all courses. The course will therefore have an end-of-course feedback survey, and you as a teacher don´t necessarily have to do anything. The feedback survey includes Aalto's common five questions and university-specific questions. In addition to these, you can add your own questions or choose additional questions from common question library questions.
