IT462 Anonymous Feedback for Credit! Due: Thursday, November 3, 2011, beginning of lab Please fill out the survey on the following pages. Your responses are very important to me and will help me improve the course for you, so please allow a few minutes to think about your answers. To encourage and reward your participation, if you complete this survey I will add 15% to your lowest scoring lab (second lowest if you completed the 6-week feedback). However, since this is anonymous, you will turn in this sheet separately from your actual comments: just tear them apart and place them in the appropriate piles on the due date. I filled out the survey. Please give me the points! Name:________________________________ IT462 Interm Survey (12 week – Fall 2011) – Anonymous OVERALL 1.
