Hello mam, Here are a couple of methods to collect data through questionnaires which I know.
1. You can create a questionnaire through google forms. Its a really cool Google docs feature, wherein, you can create and mail the questionnaires to the people you want to, And once they fill in the questionnaire and click on the submit button, the data is systematically arranged in the google docs spreadsheet, which can be imported to your hard disk as an excel file. The best way to collect data as far as I know, but as far as the creation of the forms/questionnaire is concerned, its not very accessible with Jaws. You need sighted assistance in some places to create the questionnaire. 2. Another way of doing it is, using the form toolbar in MS Word. This is an easier way of creating the questionnaire, but its a bit more work for the people filling it if you compare it to the earlier option. You may also have a hard time arranging the data in systematic order. Anyways, these were my opinions, and if you want, I can give you a guide which would help you to create questionnaires in MS Word. Hope this helps, Abdul ----- Original Message ----- From: "anjali Anand" <anjaliana...@gmail.com> To: "accessindia" <accessindia@accessindia.org.in> Sent: Wednesday, May 05, 2010 1:55 PM Subject: [AI] accessible questionnaire draft for VI hello friends, questionnaires are important tools to collect data and conduct surveys. in this regard, I was preparing a questionnnaire and am wondering what should be the appropriate accessible format to be send to VI friends? please guide me how to prepare such a questionnaire in word so that it is easy for VI friends to answer question with ease and quickly. 1. should it be in ms word only or any other? 2. how should yes/ no questions be kept and how should respondents instructed to tick mark the answer? 3. how can multiple choice questions be answered by VI friends with ease and least discomfort? 4. how should VI friends be able to answer and tick more than one option which suitably describes the information sought in the question? your help, suggestions, and guidance would be highly appreicated. please keep them simple and easy to implement for me. according to me, the format of questions given in selection exams are not so friendly and hence want to minimise the time taken by VI friends by making the questionnaire easy to attempt. thanks and regards Anjali To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.
