What Is It
A Survey is one of the best ways to know and understand the
people’s choices, attitudes, or feelings on certain issues.
We will be able to determine the reactions of the respondents and based
on the survey results, we could design some possible actions to be best
done, or a solution to a problem, or a remedy to a disease or an answer
to a question.
THREE STEPS IN
CONDUCTING A
SURVEY
1. Decide on a four or five option survey
questions. Then make a tally chart with an
appropriate heading and title.
The question should follow the guidelines
of making an effective survey question.
Formulate questions that address the aim and
need of the research. The question should be
clear, concise and efficient. The heading and the
title should reflect the focus of the survey.
2. Conduct a survey then tally
all the answers.
In conducting a survey, make
sure all answers are noted. Plan
for a more systematic way of
tallying.
3. Count the answers marking the items
with the least to the greatest tallies. Then
make a graphic representation of the results.
Be careful in tallying so you should observe
accuracy and honesty. Results can be presented
using any graphics. Most commonly used are
charts and organizers. Choose the most
appropriate graphics that best represent the
result of the survey.
NOTE: When conducting a survey, you must
observe ethics. You should write a letter of
consent. In the letter you should also
emphasize that the information given by the
respondents/ participants will be held with
utmost confidentiality. You should be polite
and show respect to the respondents. You
should maintain a friendly atmosphere so
that respondents may not feel so
intimidated.
