The Surveys tool can be used to solicit feedback or gather opinions and can even be configured for Likert scale ratings.

Survey questions do not have to have right or wrong answers, feedback cannot be provided for submissions, and they cannot be tied to Grades. Thus, Surveys are not for evaluation purposes and should not be used in place of quizzes.
