Assignment Criteria:
Develop an "Pre Course Survey" instrument for a particular course. The survey should not be more than 1 page (typewritten or word processed).
The survey should be designed so that students are required to actually write answers to specific questions and have enough room on the form to write their answers.
Include questions that begin with words like "how," "what" and "why."
Avoid questions that suggest the expected answer and questions that can be answered by single words such as "yes" or "no."
Indicate and briefly describe at least one specific resource from which additional information about student surveys can be obtained
