Course element Survey
Questionnaires and surveys must be integrated into an OLAT course so that they can be used. The course element "Survey" is added to the course editor and either an existing learning resource "Questionnaire" is integrated or a new questionnaire is created. (see also 4 steps to your questionnaire).
It can then be defined who can participate in the survey and who can see the results of the survey. The following options can be selected:
Participation:
- the owners of the course
- the coaches of the course
- the participants of the course: All persons registered in the role "Participants" in the course
- guests: Persons without OLAT Account
Also the results can be released for all these groups.
By default all 4 options are activated so that all mentioned groups can fill in the questionnaire as well as see the results. If you do not want this, uncheck the corresponding boxes.
However, the prerequisite for processing the survey is that the entire course is also available for the respective group of persons. If, for example, a survey is to be completed by external persons, the course must also be allowed for guests in the menu "Settings" -> Release "Open without booking".
From the learner's view, the questionnaire is directly visible when it calls up the survey in the left-hand navigation.
The questionnaire can only be completed once and cannot be changed after it has been sent. If you do not want to send the questionnaire directly, you can use the "Save as" option.
Survey results
The results of a survey are presented in the course run as follows and are identical for all persons who can view the results. In addition, course owners can also "reset" a completed questionnaire. In this case, all questionnaires already submitted will be deleted.
The following evaluation tabs are available:
| Overview | Here you can find out how many people filled out the questionnaire, the submission period and the processing time. Depending on the type of question, other key figures may also be listed. |
| Tables | Here you can see the individual questions and answers as well as further statistical evaluations at Rubrics. Free texts can also be downloaded as Excel tables. |
| Diagrams | The Diagrams tab shows a graphical representation of the individual questions. |
| Individual questionnaires | Here one has access to the entire filled out, anonymous questionnaires of individual persons. |
Furthermore, the contents of all 4 tabs can also be printed out or downloaded as an Excel table or as a PDF version.
The same evaluation can also be found in the menu "Administration" -> "Survey statistics".
Another way to save the results is via the menu "Data Archiving" -> "Surveys". This is the same file as under "Export" in the course run.
