While satisfaction surveys and end-of-course evaluations (e.g., eCAFE) are important and provide useful information, they do not help faculty and programs understand what students learned and why.

Workshop outcomes: Attendees will be able to

  • State the purpose of satisfaction surveys and learning-assessment surveys;
  • Differentiate between questions that investigate student learning and satisfaction;
  • Describe how survey results can be used to guide program development; and
  • List strategies to increase survey response rates.
