Types of surveys
Course/site surveys: The survey can only be taken from within the SOLE course/site it was created. You must have a SOLE account and be enrolled in the course/site in which the survey was created.
Public surveys: The survey is available to anyone. A link is created that anyone can access, and it can be taken multiple times.
Protected surveys: This survey requires you to log into your SOLE account. You can access the survey through a link or through the course/site itself if you are enrolled in the course/site.
Take a survey
Access the survey.
For protected or public surveys, follow the link provided to you.
For course/site surveys, enter the course from your SOLE homepage. Surveys can be accessed within Assessment or the course Content. You can also click Surveys to see a list of surveys that are accessible through the course.
Once you have entered the survey, any directions for the survey will be listed before you begin. Click the green Launch Survey button.
There are seven types of survey questions: Text Box, Text Area, Check List, Drop Down List, Option List, Rating, and Slider. How you answer the survey questions will depend on the question delivery and question type. Required questions are clearly labeled below the question text.
Questions will either be delivered one at a time, all at once, or grouped together by section.
For surveys that deliver one question at a time, click the arrow button beneath the question once you have chosen your answer to move on to the next question. If questions are grouped by section, choose all answer options then hit the arrow button to move on to the next section.
For surveys that deliver all questions at once you will click the Submit Survey button once you have completed answering all questions in the survey.
The Submit Survey button will appear gray and will be unclickable until you reach the end of the survey (for survey questions that are displayed one at a time or by section) or once all required questions in a survey have been answered (for a survey that displays all questions at once).
