540 wk 2

Ok! so I feel better now. I was worked up last week with all of the math that we had to do. I was not eager to do pages of stats homework, I thought that I was done with all of that math. This week I am glad to see us looking for survey tools on the web, this is more what I envisioned when we started this class. I do not use surveys currently, but after discovering a few new tools on the web, I might find a use for them. One thing I may use them for is student feedback. I have to collect data for my PDP anyways and what better way than using a web based electronic survey. I have used survey monkey in the past and know it to be useful in small surveys. I was really excited to find esurveyspro which allows for the creation and distribution of larger surveys. This could be useful for larger data collection. I currently assess student feedback at the end of each semester, but after finding more of these data collection tools, I should start collecting feedback More often. These tools will grow on me at some point, just like everything else, it may take time.

  1. Amen, it takes time. Data collecting and analyzing can become habit forming and even fun.
