Survey/Event Tool

Overview

ITS understands the need to sometimes collect information and associate the information collected with the individual submitting the information through authentication that verifies the individual’s association with the University.

  • 10 questions per survey
  • 100 responses per survey
  • Collect data via weblink, email, facebook or embed on your site
  • Real-time results
  • No ITS involvement
• When MyWashburn authentication is not required and you need it NOW:  a survey tool is available through Google Docs.
• If audience of survey are students in a class or classes, Angel has a survey feature for this purpose.

• When the University is planning an event requiring registration, ITS offers the ITS Event tool for registration.
