Problem: In 1 to 2 pages explain how to create a web-based survey using the guidelines. Conclude with a couple paragraphs explaining technology's role in evaluation tools.
According to Granello and Wheaton (2004) and Archer (2003), web-based surveys can be administered easily by following several important steps:
1. Determine the target population to be assessed and the purpose of the survey:
2. Design the layout of the survey and format questions, remembering to keep the survey short and simple or else risk skewed answers;
3. Provide a welcome screen that is user friendly from the start that explains the easiness of responding to questions with instructions;
4. Post questions that have a consistent format and flow;
5. Test the system before launching it to make certain the glitches are worked out;
6. Pilot test the survey with a small group similar to the targeted audience; and
7. Strategically plan the survey distribution with only a few email reminders.
