The Survey Manager feature allows you to create anonymous, non-graded surveys,
using the same question types as the Blackboard Test Manager. In surveys correct
answers are not identified and a statistical analysis of the answers is provided.
This feature can be used for course or instructor evaluations, or to gather demographical
information. Instructors can use the Survey Manager to guide course curriculum
by asking students questions on pacing, the need for clarification, etc.
