What’s included
AI follow-ups

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- AI interviewer creates a non-judgmental conversational space that encourages honest disclosure on sensitive topics like safety fears and academic dishonesty
- Every AI prompt, model, and logic flow is fully transparent and logged—critical for IRB compliance and reproducible campus climate research
- Customizable AI personality lets researchers adjust tone for sensitive topics while maintaining methodological consistency across administrations
Jotform
Academic Integrity Form TemplateDesigned as a policy acknowledgment form rather than a climate survey—students sign to confirm they understand academic honesty expectations. Useful for compliance but does not assess the actual climate of integrity on campus.
What it does well
- E-signature collection via Jotform Sign for formal student acknowledgment
- Easy embedding within LMS or institutional websites with custom CSS
Where it falls short
- Not a survey at all—it's a compliance/acknowledgment form, not a climate assessment tool
- No questions exploring student attitudes, peer norms, or perceived institutional response to dishonesty
- No AI-powered interviewing to sensitively explore why students may or may not engage in academic dishonesty
Jotform
Academic Honesty Form TemplateAnother compliance-oriented form for students to acknowledge academic honesty policies. Keeps digital records of student acknowledgments but doesn't measure the climate of integrity or explore student attitudes.
What it does well
- Digital record-keeping with database storage for easy sorting and searching
- Helps schools maintain documentation that students understand policy repercussions
Where it falls short
- Compliance form, not a research instrument—cannot assess campus integrity climate
- No mechanism to explore peer norms, pressure to cheat, or perceived fairness of enforcement
- No AI follow-ups to sensitively probe attitudes toward academic dishonesty
Qualtrics
Student & Staff Experience Management for EducationComprehensive education experience platform trusted by 1,800+ institutions for climate surveys, safety assessments, and multi-channel feedback. Powerful but enterprise-priced and operates as a platform rather than offering specific ready-to-use campus safety or integrity templates publicly.
What it does well
- Enterprise-grade platform trusted by 1,800+ educational institutions with FedRAMP and ISO certifications
- Multi-channel data collection including surveys, social media, call centers, and online reviews
Where it falls short
- Enterprise pricing requires custom quotes—prohibitive for individual researchers or departments
- AI features lack the prompt-level transparency needed for IRB-compliant reproducible research
- No publicly available ready-to-use campus safety or academic integrity survey templates
SurveyMonkey
University Student Satisfaction Survey TemplateIncludes campus safety as one dimension within a broader student satisfaction framework. Not a dedicated safety or integrity climate instrument—safety is covered by a few items rather than explored in depth.
What it does well
- Covers campus safety alongside academic advising, student services, and registration in one instrument
- Benchmarkable questions developed in partnership with U.S. Department of Education
Where it falls short
- Campus safety is a minor component—not a dedicated safety assessment with emergency communication evaluation
- No dedicated academic integrity climate questions whatsoever
- No AI capability to follow up on reported safety concerns or explore unreported incidents
SurveySparrow
Student Engagement Survey TemplateGeneral student engagement template with conversational UI and multiple question types. Does not specifically address campus safety or academic integrity, though the platform supports building custom surveys on these topics.
What it does well
- Conversational survey interface with tap-friendly question types that boost response rates
- Recurring survey scheduling for longitudinal campus climate tracking
Where it falls short
- No campus safety or academic integrity-specific template available
- No AI-powered follow-ups to sensitively explore safety incidents or integrity violations
- No methodology guidance for handling sensitive topics like harassment reporting or cheating norms
