Course Evaluation

Question

We have been requested to use Brightspace to create and distribute course evaluations. The request is that the survey's themselves live within the organization unit and that we provide a link within the course page for students to access the survey. We want to do this because we don't want instructors to look at results until we as administrators download and give them them a report.

I have enabled the survey and quiz settings for learners at the specific org levels but I cannot figure out the best way to add the links to the specific course. I feel like I am missing something. I created the survey at the College level and then from there don't know how I would add it to the specific course page.

Any advice?

How did you capture the URL of the survey? This might not be it, but given that you've already adjusted the permissions and haven't been able to identify a problem there, is there any chance the URL you're trying to use isn't actually the student-facing version of the address?

I had a custom url once in a navbar that wasn't working until I figured out exactly where to capture it from so as to ensure it wasn't the admin-facing version of the address that would only work for me. (No offense intended if you've already ruled this out! It just got me once.)

Thanks! But I guess my question is more tailored to the fact that I created a survey at a School Level. And I want to make it available to courses through link so that only students can access the link but it lives at the school level. I have tried to adjust the permissions for students to view but when I impersonate the students I keep getting an error that they can't access the link.

Oh, I should have mentioned that in Google Sheets, I created secondary tabs to reformat and summarize the data. So what the directed downloads and sends to instructors isn't the raw, ugly data. It's the manipulated slightly more pretty data.
