Hi Rob, I like the idea of a satisfaction survey. I would suggest using an industry standard, the SUS. http://www.measuringusability.com/sus.php
It's been around for 25 years or so, it has provided reliable metrics, and it could prove to be a rich data source. Another alternative is to create the survey in Google Forms and then embed it on sub-page. I've used this approach in many classes taught online, and it goes pretty well. Plus you get more questions.
