Create Your Own Survey

Define Your Objectives

• Purpose of the Survey:

  • What do you hope to learn or achieve through the survey?

  • Are you exploring awareness levels, interest in a new club, or gathering feedback on a particular issue?

• Target Audience:

  • Who will you survey? (Students, teachers, community members)

  • Tailor your questions to the specific demographics of your audience.

Design Your Questions

• Question Types:

  • Multiple-Choice: Good for gathering quantitative data.

  • Rating Scales: Use Likert scales to gauge opinions or levels of agreement.

  • Open-Ended: Allow respondents to share thoughts in their own words.

• Avoid Bias:

  • Ensure questions are neutral and don’t lead respondents to a particular answer.

  • Pilot your survey with a small group first to identify any confusing or biased questions.

• Keep it Concise:

  • Limit the survey to 10-15 questions to avoid fatigue.

  • Prioritize clarity and relevance in each question.

Distribute the Survey

• Online Platforms:

• In-Person Distribution:

  • Hand out paper copies in classes or during school events.

  • Set up a booth during lunch breaks to encourage participation.

Analyze the Results

• Data Organization:

  • Export the survey data to a spreadsheet for easier analysis.

  • Use charts and graphs to visualize key findings.

• Identify Trends:

  • Look for common themes or patterns in responses.

  • Compare responses across different demographics (e.g., age, grade level).

• Actionable Insights:

  • Use the results to inform your club’s focus and activities.

  • Share the findings with your target group or school administration if relevant.

  • Does the result align with the findings from the earlier research you did?
