Description: This report will organize the data collected by surveys utilizing the same survey template and allow the user to compare the results to another set of aggregate results. For example, a department can compare both their overall results and specific survey question results to their College or the Institution if the same survey template is used. Another option is to compare the course section result with the aggregate course results. The user can choose to display choose multiple statistics for comparison purposes.
