Abstract

The main goal of this project was to create an interactive website to survey students about their course perceptions as related to the MUSIC model of learning. The MUSIC Model of Motivation Inventory is a survey developed by Dr. Brett Jones that teachers use to assess their students' perceptions of the class. The interactive website allows instructors to select which parts of the survey they would like to give their students. After completing the survey, instructors can visit the website to view individual results as well as averages and visualizations.

The website is for both teachers and students. Instructors can generate survey links for students, and view results and visualizations. Students can access the survey to enter their answers. The information and results gathered is stored in a database. Based on the gathered results, instructors receive suggestions and feedback on improving their instruction.

The surveys are created using HTML, and a database is used to store the answers. Since the website is hosted on BlueHost, phpMyAdmin and MySQL are employed. For the visualization of the results, D3.js, a JavaScript library, is used to provide dynamic and interactive visualizations.
