Survey Question Bank
Surveys can be a useful way to obtain information from our students about their learning experiences, both in and outside of the classroom. This type of assessment measure is normally considered as an indirect assessment, as most often we are asking for perceptions to be shared about an experience(s) in a class, program, activity etc.
Here are some resources available to help you to get started with creating survey questions:
- WMU's Data Collection Through Surveys Policy
- Merze Tate College survey question bank - WMU Bronco NetId log-in required
- Student Affairs Survey Item Question Bank - This website provides information on learning outcomes, emphasizing their importance in enhancing the educational experience for students and the planning process within the university's student affairs division. The question bank is sorted by the focus area for intended learning outcomes. Click on the PDFs linked on the page to view associated questions.

- Learning outcomes and question bank - From the University of Nevada, Las Vegas Division of Student Affairs, this document provides a question bank from academic year 2023, containing a collection of questions for use in assessments or surveys related to academic or co-curricular programs. It can also serve as a resource for designing other assessment instruments.
