Qualtrics
What is Qualtrics? How can I use it?
Qualtrics is a web-based survey software tool available for use by all Mt. SAC faculty,
staff, and students. Qualtrics can be used to capture survey results from a publicly-available
survey, or from users who are specifically given access to a survey. It may be used
to
- Assist faculty, staff, and students with collecting data for research project or assignments
- Assess user satisfaction with academic or administrative programs or services
- Collect requests for services or assistance in place of a traditional HTML form etc.
Who Can Use this Software?
All Mt. SAC faculty, staff, and students have access to Qualtrics. Qualtrics requires
the use of a Mt. SAC account to login. Individuals outside of Mt. SAC may complete
a Qualtrics survey but they cannot login to access survey results.
Using Qualtrics in Your Class
Qualtrics may be used by faculty who require students as a part of class projects
to create, distribute, and analyze the survey results.
Setting Up a Qualtrics Account
When you access Qualtrics for the first time, you will be required to set up an account.
Simply type in http://mtsac.qualtrics.com/ in the URL and answer some basic informational
questions (i.e. name, email etc.). This will set up your account with Qualtrics;
