The survey activity module provides several verified survey instruments that have been found useful in assessing and stimulating learning in online environments. An instructor can use these to gather data from their learners that will help them learn about their class and reflect on their teaching.

Note that these survey tools are pre-populated with questions. Instructors who wish to create their survey should use the feedback activity module.

In organizations, the survey allows course educators to create surveys for their learners. This can be used to collect feedback on several topics, such as course content, teaching methods, or learner satisfaction.
