Aggregated Results

  1. Pull a mean score across multiple levels in your hierarchy, Projects, course sections, or survey questions, as well as overall percent and frequencies. Note: this feature requires questions to have a common scale.
  2. Reports based off select Question Criteria (for example, you can view the survey results for all students who answered "yes" to a specific question).
  3. Reports that compare Courses, Departments and Instructor results.
  4. Reports that only display select Questions from a survey(s).
  5. Reports that only show results for specific course or user metadata.

Mean Score

The Mean is the average score/weight of responses submitted.
  1. Example:
    1. The following response options and numeric weighting is assigned to a question:
      (4) Strongly Agree
      (3) Agree
      (2) Disagree
      (1) Strongly Disagree
      (0) N/A
  2. Results Example:
      1. 7 students selected Strongly Agree as a response, which has a weight of 4.
      2. 3 students submitted Agree as a response, which has a weight of 3.
      3. 2 students selected Disagree as a response, which has a weight of 2.
      4. 2 students selected N/A as a response, which has a weight of 0.
      5. A total of 12 (7 + 3 + 2) students submitted a response to the question. Students who responded with N/A with a zero weight are not included in the mean score.
      6. The mean score is calculated by the total score/weight for all responses divided by the number of respondents.
      7. In this example: ((7x4)+(3x3)+(2x2)) / 12
        1. 7 x 4 = 28; 3 x 3 = 9; 2 x 2 = 4
        2. 28 + 9 + 4 = 41
        3. 41 / 12 = 3.42 mean score

Median Score

The Median is the middle value if all responses are lined
  1. Using the above example, all response scores/weights are lined up in a row, with 4 being the median: 4,4,4,4,4,4,3,3,2
  2. If there is an odd number of response scores/weights submitted, the median is the mean of the middle two numbers (e.g. 4,4,4,4,3,3,2,2 = 3.5 median)
