9/19/14

This weekend's homework is to revise and set up your survey so that it can be implemented next week. Review the comments posted upon and the checklist below.

On Monday, your survey should be submitted on a piece of paper or completed and set up on through either surveymonkey.com or Google Forms. Please reach out to me if you have questions.

Survey Revision Checklist

o  Did I include instructions with my survey?

o  Did I briefly explain the purpose of my survey (and without getting too specific)?

o  Did I leave out a space for the respondent’s name?

o  Did I determine my objectives for my survey?

o  Did I examine each question carefully?

o  Did I try to make each question into a structured/fixed response question?

o  Did I include instructions for each question such as “circle the choice, write the letter, choose all that apply, etc.?”

o  Did I work to make sure that my answer choices are exhaustive and have a range of options so that my subjects can answer in detail?

o  Did I develop the best list I could of all the possible, plausible answers to my fixed response questions?

o  Am I specific whenever possible? For example, do I ask people about a specific meal as opposed to just “when you eat?”

o  DID I PROOFREAD?


o  Did I ask a classmate to review my survey and try to answer all the questions to check for problems with the questions?
