About the assessment

Includes all users listed as an instructor of record for a course taught in the Canvas Pilot during any of the three Summer sessions (1, 10-week, and 2). Instructors are only asked to complete this survey once during the entirety of the Pilot—if they participate in multiple quarters, they will not take the survey multiple times.
