Questionnaires allow authors to create a series of questions in one Instruction item. You can then review individual learner responses as well as the merged results of all respondents.
To create a questionnaire, open the desired Catalog entry and Section, Add instruction, and choose Questionnaire.
- Give your questionnaire a Title.
- Provide the Expected duration for the Interaction to inform Effort data.
- Check the Notify coach to review box if you want coaches to immediately know when a learner has completed the questionnaire (when checked, learners don't receive Mastery award until the coach review is complete).
- Click Add question and choose the type you want (Likert, Choice, Short answer, or Multiple response).
Question types
You can create Likert scale, Choice, Short answer, and Multiple response questions for your questionnaire.
Likert scale questions
Likert scale questions ask learners to choose a rating from a linear, numbered scale (e.g., "On a scale of 1-5, how strongly to do agree or disagree with X?").
To create Likert scale questions:
- Provide the Title and Mastery award.
- Provide instructions on how to answer the question(s) if needed.
- Review and edit the Likert scale Labels if needed. By default, Dawn provides one of the most commonly used scales: numbers 1-5, where 1 = Strongly disagree and 5 = Strongly agree. You can add and subtract labels as well as change them.
- On the Questions card, provide the questions or statements that learners are asked to respond to. You can Add questions, but remember that they are all going to be answered by learners using the same scale.
For learners, each question is presented as a multiple choice question on its own screen.
Choice questions
To create a Choice question:
- Provide the Title and Mastery award.
- Include the question and any other information learners need in the Body.

Choice questions are displayed with radio buttons, and learners can choose only one.
Short answer
To create a Short answer question:
- Provide the Title.
- Indicate whether you want to Require coach review to receive mastery award.
