Retake survey Links
Would you like survey respondents to be able to return to their responses and edit them? Retake Survey Links might be the solution.
What is a Retake Survey Link?
Retake survey links allow you or your respondent to go back into a survey response and edit it after it’s been submitted. This is useful if a respondent wants to change their answer to a question, or if the respondent’s incomplete response was closed because of inactivity, but they would still like to finish the survey.
Types of Retake Survey Links
Retake Response: The edited response replaces the original response.
Retake as New Response: The edited response is saved in addition to the original response.
Issuing Retake Links
Manually One at a Time
Navigate to the Data section of the Data & Analysis tab.
Select the 3 dots next to the response you need to retake.
Select the retake link type.
Copy the link that pops up.
Caution: Anyone can use a retake link to retake that particular response, so be sure to send it to the correct respondent.
Manually in Bulk
Download the data.
Add columns in the data.
Use the guidelines for building retake links (described below).
Use the function concatenate in Excel to build the links in a column. You’ll need a column for the anonymous link, a column that contains ?Q_R=, and optionally a column that contains &Q_R_DEL=1.
In the column that will contain the retake link, you will concatenate the anonymous link with ?Q_R= and the Response ID for that row of data. Optionally, you will add &Q_R_DEL=1 to the end.
Building Retake Links in a Qualtrics Workflow
Perhaps you want to immediately send a retake link to a respondent or another person once the initial survey is submitted. For example, you might have a survey filled out by students, which then triggers an email with the retake link to the Program Director. The PD then fills out additional questions about the applicant and resubmits the information. Retake links can be constructed outside the Data & Analysis tab and can be used in end of survey messages and email tasks.
Navigate to the Workflows tab of your survey.
Create a new workflow.
Select Started by an event.
Select the Survey Response event and choose Response created.
Fetch the anonymous link to the survey from the Distributions tab and return to the Workflow you were editing.
Using the plus sign, add an email task to the workflow.
Paste the anonymous link into the body of the email (do not paste it as a hyperlink).
Append ?Q_R= to the end of the anonymous link.
Place your cursor after the equal sign.
Click the piped text icon, {a}.
Hover over Response and select Response ID.
Your link should look like this: qualtrics.msu.edu/jfe/form/SV_1234567890?Q_R=${e://Field/ResponseID}
If you want the retake link response to replace the original response, append “&Q_R_DEL=1” to the end of the link, after the Response ID piped text.
Your link would look like this: qualtrics.msu.edu/jfe/form/SV_1234567890?Q_R=${e://Field/ResponseID}&Q_R_Del=1
You might want to insert that long URL into a hyperlink.
Next, just finish the email task and save your workflow. The individual who receives the email task will have a link that allows them to see the original response and change its answers.

Classroom Check-In Survey
As an instructor, you may have questions about if your students are feeling engaged, understanding the material, feel like they belong to the classroom community, etc. A survey is a great way to check-in with your students about issues and topics such as these.
Types of Survey Questions:
Open ended – Asks a questions and leaves a text box for an individual to type a response. ex: How could this class be improved?
Response Scales – Asks an individual to select a response based on a scale. ex. On a scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), do you feel as if you belong to the classroom community?
There is a tradeoff between different types of questions. Open-ended questions allow for more details and specifics to be collected, but scales provide good summary information (e.g. average sense of belonging).
Tips for a Survey:
Make sure students know why the information is being collected and why it is important to complete the survey.
Have a student or colleague review the survey prior to administration and get their thoughts (e.g. what is unclear?).
Try and ask your questions as clear and straightforward as possible.
Try to keep your survey short, as longer survey can lead to fewer or fatigued responses.
Avoid asking sensitive questions and consider making your survey anonymous
Have a plan for how to use the information collected.

Pre-Class Survey
It's helpful to survey your students before class begins to learn about their accessibility and/or technology needs. This contributes to students feeling welcome in your course and gives you practical information about both learners' needs and whether to follow-up with specific resources. There is a template accessibility survey (titled "[COURSE#] Accessibility pre-start Survey") within the CTLI's library of surveys that you can copy and adapt to your own course; instructions on how to access and make your own version are here: https://iteach.msu.edu/iteachmsu/groups/iteachmsu/stories/2810

Please register here.
What is THATCamp?
THATCamp stands for “The Humanities and Technology Camp.” It is an unconference: an open, less formal meeting where humanists and technologists of all skill levels learn and build together in sessions proposed on the spot (From: http://thatcamp.org/about).
Who is THATCamp for?
This day-long, in person, fun, unconference is a fantastic opportunity for people on campus, whether formally a part of the DH@MSU community or not, to gather, learn from each other, and make connections to carry forward into the academic year. We welcome:
Members of the DH@MSU community, old and new
Students in the Digital Humanities undergraduate minor or graduate certificate, and students interested in the minor/certificate
Humanists who are engaged in digital and computer-assisted research, teaching, and creation
Anyone doing or interested in exploring work in the digital, especially (but not exclusively) in the areas of arts, humanities, and social sciences
Why THATCamp MSU?
DH@MSU is continuing our annual THATCamp each August targeted at MSU faculty, staff, and students for a few reasons:
To bring people back together after the summer
To introduce new folks to the DH@MSU community
Share knowledge, expertise, and skills among the community
Build connections between community members for future collaborations, troubleshooting, and ice cream social time.
THATCamp is FREE! Please register here.
Please direct any questions to Max Evjen (evjendav@msu.edu).
