Add-on Modules (in addition to the Basic Questionnaire)

In addition to the Basic Questionnaire, up to 5 further Add-on Modules can be selected when registering an evaluation. By selecting different Add-on Modules, you can individualize your questionnaire and inquire about exactly those aspects of your course that are of particular interest to you. In this way, we hope to meet the specific requirements of the various course types and disciplines.

Module combinations for lecture, seminar or exercise/tutorial

Before the transition to our modular system, there were separate questionnaires in our portfolio for the most common course formats (lecture, seminar, exercise/tutorial). If you would like to continue using these proven questionnaires, you can select them at the beginning of your evaluation registration. In the further course of the registration, the questionnaires are composed of the Basic Questionnaire and certain Add-on Modules. Thus, you have the possibility to add further Add-on Modules or to change your selection if necessary.
