QClassroom for Higher Ed

Hi Ashleigh,
Megan Dreeszen, Director of Institutional Research & Project Management at a not-for a private healthcare college in Nebraska in US. We have a small college of about 1200 students that we will be surveying in Q-Classroom starting in a few weeks for the first time. We do have multiple teachers up to 10 since we have clinicals as well. So far from what I seen and tested Q-Classroom handles it pretty easily. The data files to import were a little tricky initially but now that we have them setup and pulling the data we want in it looks good. Not our IT will setup files to auto import using the SFTP site. So this product will save us a ton of time compared to our old tool. Also, we have integrated into our LMS Brightspace so that the students can easily click their course evaluations to complete in their course. We are working with a 3rd party vendor on the implemntation with a very quick turnaround of going live.
I am at the point where I am looking now for other schools to see what they set for their anonimize responses options. We would like to connect course evaluation results with other survey results and data sets. From what I heard n order to do that I can't set anonymize responses. Our institution has had that set in the past. How have you set yours up to run?
Thank You,
Megan Dreeszen

Hi Megan,
We have just launched our first major survey deployment with QClassroom and it successfully handled all of our teachers (we ended up with just over 400,000 surveys in total). We are also working with a third party vendor on implementation and it has been helpful to have experts to call on!
The challenge we have is that a single course might have up to 10 teachers - QClassroom only lets us show one teacher after the other, where we had hoped to present all teachers (with their photos) on a single screen and then let students tick which teacher they want to provide feedback to, then only display the teacher questions for the selected teachers. It's an ongoing challenge for us that we're trying to work on some creative solutions to make it happen!
Our responses are intentionally not anonymised - we have protocols where students are contacted by the Registrar if they make unacceptable comments (racist, sexist, etc) so we have to be able to identify all responses in those cases.
We're now working on our dashboards to present the data after the survey closes and that will be without any identifying information.
Hopefully there are some more institutions out there that can help with advice :)

We just adopted Qualtrics and our previous survey tool allowed us to have multiple professors in a drop down so the student could select which to evaluate. Definitely miss that feature.
