A student who wants to create his or her own survey is given a student account with the ability to upload surveys (see Allow a student to Upload Surveys). When a student with this ability uploads a survey, the survey will appear in the instructor’s list of surveys as an unpublished survey, and only the instructor and the student who created the survey will be able to view it. The instructor should review the survey to ensure that it’s appropriate. Then, to approve it and make it available for other students to fill out, the instructor must publish it as he or she would one of his or her own surveys (see Publish a Survey for instructions on how to do this). The purpose of this step is to make sure that a responsible adult reviews the survey before it is made available online.
