The Teacher/Student survey, this advanced feature allows you to create a teacher Profile Survey that is linked (through a shared, unique Profile Code) to multiple student surveys (Profile Records).
With this type of survey, only those respondents (students), who have the proper Profile Code (password), can take the survey.
To take advantage of this option you need to:
- Create a profile survey.
- Add profile records.
- Link your surveys.
- From the Surveys Home page click the New Survey button and select Common-password survey.
- Name your survey and add a question that asks for profile information.
- Continue with a standard design survey procedure.
There are two ways to add profile records to your survey: you can launch your survey in a regular way and have your respondents to submit the information; or you can add profile records manually. You can do it following the steps below:
- From the Survey Information pane in the right on the Surveys Home page click the Add profile records link.
- Click Add New to launch the survey.
- Fill in the profile information and click Submit.
- Customize the automatically generated profile code if desired. This is the code respondents use to access the shared survey.
- Click OK if you need to add another profile record.
When you have added profile records, you can manage them on the Common-Password Survey page, you can find the description of the controls below:

Tip: How to limit the number of respondents for one profile record.
You can set the limit on the number of respondents who access the survey using the same profile code. If the respondent does not meet the limit condition, the access will be denied after entering the profile code. To use this option, follow the steps below:
- In the profile survey edit the question of Single line type or add the new one.
- Enter the tag <max_students_count/> in any 'Write label for each line' single line text field.
- When adding profile records specify in the above mentioned field the number of maximum respondents allowed.
- Common-password surveys can contain all questions types except for '3D Matrix'.
- Logical transitions are not available for this type of survey.
- Profile code is case sensitive.
