Survey Design.

A survey questionnaire was created by the 40 members of the Social Research and Program Evaluation team at Longwood University. The survey contained both open-ended and close-ended questions. Items on the survey were designed to evaluate SMART objectives of each of five activities that were completed the previous week by Head Start families. Beyond the objectives of the activities, participants were asked about their experiences with Head Start, take-home activities, and demographic information about their households.

Survey Question Assignment 

  1. The overall goal in this experiment is to show the statistical data on children ages 3-5 years old. This project should be an overall measurement of how children and parents work together on theses fun activities while creating a bond. The hypothesis is if parents are more involved in the children’s life, then they will improve their learning skills?  
  1. While doing this creative project with your child did it help increase or decrease yall relationship with each other?  
  1. How much time did you spend on the project? 
  • Less than or equal to 10 minutes 
  • 11-20 minutes  
  • 21-30 minutes 
  • More than 31 minutes  
  1. These questions are written well enough for the participants to be able to answer without having to cause any confusion for a response. There are specific guidelines for asking questions that would make the questionaries more suitable for the participants such as making items clear, avoiding double-barreled questions, questions should be relevant, and avoiding negative items.  
  1. Survey research is defined as “A method that collects data from respondents through a series of questions either in the form of a questionnaire or an interview.” The best types of practices would be job applications, election, and school events. There are a variety of questionnaires that are useful throughout the entire world that make life more meaningful and allow everyone to become a participant that lets them give feedback on a particular subject without having their privacy being exposed.
