Then select whether you want participants to be Anonymous or Identified.

• Anonymous = Participants are fully anonymous therefore no grading information can be passed back to the VLE/LMS

• Identified = Names will be hidden for other participants but the participants identity will be visible in the data reports and will pass back correct answer grading information to the VLE/LMS 

As it’s a feedback survey, chose Anonymous to encourage participation,then click Done.

This embeds the Vevox session in your course learning content.
