A survey is a list of questions aimed to collect targeted data for the analysis of some specific aspect of a group or area. You can now conduct survey's on Teamie using the Survey feature which provides for the creation of feedback forms at a classroom/module/course level. You can add multiple question formats in a survey, such as, multiple-choice questions, single choice questions, scale questions and short answer questions. You can easily track whether a user has completed the feedback form and also export learners' responses for a survey in an Excel or CSV format. Let's see how you can create and manage surveys on Teamie.
This is an optional feature. You can contact your Teamie administrator or write to us in case you wish to enable this on your site.

For some use cases, adding questions in a survey requires for the options and question to be duplicated / cloned. For this, instructors have a Clone Question option, which will be available while editing an existing survey question.
Cloning survey questions will help instructors to add similar questions without the need of retyping the same content. Therefore, instructors can quickly make copies of survey question(s) and add them to the survey after making the required changes. This includes cases in which only the question changes and the options remain the same. The cloned question will also retain the settings of the original question.
