Student Experience Surveys in Brightspace

You can view anonymous, aggregate Brightspace survey results directly in the course’s **Statistics** view or export them to Excel by creating a **Summary Report** in **Reports Setup** and selecting **Export to Excel**.

Viewing Your Survey Results in Brightspace:
After surveys close, you can view your course results:

1. From your course homepage, click Surveys under the Course Activities menu.
2. Click the dropdown arrow next to the survey you’d like to review.

4. A new page will open with a summary of aggregate responses. This includes:
   • Percentages for each response option
