Creating surveys with Likert questions

This one is a bit special. It is the only question type that cannot be graded. The Rating Scale (Likert) question is used to gather feedback and opinions, so there is no right or wrong answer for this type of question. The idea is to display statements on the screen and have students express their level of agreement with these statements using a rating scale.

Reporting Likert questions to an LMS
It is the LMS that determines the amount of information that may be extracted from the course. Some LMSes support a very detailed set of information, while other LMSes only support basic information about the course and the quiz. Although Captivate sends a comprehensive report to the LMS, all the items of the Likert question might not be available for data analysis on your server. Check the documentation of your LMS to find out what exactly is supported. There will be more on LMS and reporting in the Reporting scores to an LMS section later in this chapter...
