Core webinar: Developing the Best Survey Tips from Consultations

Date: Wednesday, February 3, 2021

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1 pm Central, and 2 pm Eastern time.



Description: Surveys are popular assessment tools to understand users'
needs and perceptions because they are easy and quick to use. In spite of
the convenience and popularity, it is hard to have a well-designed survey.
In this presentation, the Assessment Coordinator of the University of
Illinois at Chicago (UIC) Library will share her experiences and lessons
learned from consultations over the years, as well as practical tips:

When and how to use surveys (e.g., using surveys to demonstrate the
library's impact on students' academic success)

Survey flow (e.g., where to add demographic questions; the order of
questions) and length

Response options (e.g., yes/no or Likert Scale)

Rules and policies (e.g., user privacy and accessibility)

The presenter will use the examples of the surveys that she has developed
and used in her university library consultations. This presentation targets
any library staff who are involved in assessment or want to improve their
skills in developing surveys as an assessment tool. During the Q & A,
attendees will have an opportunity to share their experiences and tips in
developing surveys with others.

Learning outcomes:

At the end of this webinar, the attendees will be able to:

   -

   Understand why a well-designed survey is important.
   -

   Learn practical tips when developing a survey.

Who should attend?
