Christina, I guess your situation is better than the other way around - where they put on a happy face to you and then trash you on the survey. In my opinion, students view surveys as a nuisance and waste of time. By checking ok to everything they can get on with their lives without any further involvement. Changing things requires personal investment - even when the surveys are anonymous - and students don't believe the results will warrant the effort.
