Let’s have a Survey! What’s your pet? Let’s have a Survey! Let’s create a graph! DISSEMINATING INFORMATION FROM A SURVEY WHAT IS A SURVEY? 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 done, a potential solution to aid a problem, or a remedy to a disease or an answer to a not-so-simple question. But what do you do with the data or information you have collected after conducting your survey? Remember that every single information or data gathered from surveys should be properly organized before it could be disseminated. WHAT IS A SURVEY? According to Cambridge International Organization, data can be organized in several ways. Which method is chosen depends largely on the type of data being collected. A simple way of recording the results is by constructing a tally and frequency table. For example, a survey is carried out to test the manufacturer’s claim that there are ‘about 36 Cadbury chocolate buttons in each packet.’ The number of buttons in each of 25 packets is counted, giving the figures below. WHAT IS A SURVEY? WHAT IS A SURVEY? Sometimes if there is a big range in the data, it is more useful to group the data in a grouped frequency table. The groups are chosen so that no data item can appear in two groups. Constructing a tally and frequency table with a list of individual ages will not be very useful as most ages in the range will only have one or two results. Grouping the data into the age ranges 71-80, 81-90, etc. produces this more useful table.

In a ¼ sheet of paper, answer the following questions: 1.What is the activity that’s done to know people’s feelings or choices about a certain topic or issue? 2.What is a type of question that one can answer freely and is often used in qualitative research? 3.A Likert Scale falls under what type of question? 4.What kind of graph uses symbols or images to represent frequencies? 5.What does the height of the bar in a bar graph represent? Let’s Practice! At the back of your paper, analyze the graph and answer the following questions: 1. What is the snowiest month? 2. When did it snowed the least? 3. What is the total number of snow days? 4. How many days did it snow for the months of January and March? 5. What is the difference between the snow days of February and January? Thanks! There is nothing beyond this LESSON 3 METHODS OF ADMINISTERING A SURVEY A survey method is the technique of gathering data by asking questions to people who are thought to have desired information. A formal questionnaire is prepared. Generally a non-disguised approach is used. The respondents are asked questions on their demographic interest or opinion. Administering a survey is a systematic way of achieving certain goals. The following methods are introduced by Sarah Mae Sincero (2012). 1. Personal Approach This process of conducting the survey involves the researcher. It is used to probe the answers of the respondents and at the same time, to observe the behavior of the respondents, either individually or as a group. This method has two subtypes: Administering a survey is a systematic way of achieving certain goals. The following methods are introduced by Sarah Mae Sincero (2012). Personal Approach a. Face-to-face Structured Interview The interview is set personally, and the people involved face each other in order to gather the necessary information. Questions on the survey are asked directly to the respondent by the researcher. Personal Approach b. Telephone Survey The survey is done using telephone or cellular phones. The calls are made to ask individuals about certain questions. This method can be used for asking consequential questions. 2. Self- Administered Approach In this type of approach, the survey is administered without the actual presence of the researcher and the respondents are expected to accomplish the survey independently Self- Administered Approach a. Paper-and-pencil Survey This is a traditional method of administering a survey which entails that respondent be or are accompanied by someone who is computer literate. Self- Administered Approach b. Online Survey This is a useful technique especially for studies which include many respondents from different locations. This is used to gather information from respondents who live in different areas. This enables all participants to answer through different online platforms. Self- Administered Approach c. Mail Survey This popular tool requires an easy- administering of the survey where survey questionnaires are mailed to individuals who are given enough time to read and ponder on the information asked. 01 Writing a S urvey Re p o r t It is a formal piece of writing based on research. When reporting the results of a 01 survey, the figures gathered should be given in the form of percentages and proportions. The purpose(s) of writing a survey report is to study a research topic thoroughly, and to 02 summarize the existing studies in an organized manner. It is an important step in any research project Steps in Writing a Survey Report 1.Break the report into separate sections with heading. Survey reports usually use headings for each section. 2. Write 1–2-page executive summary paraphrasing the report. 3. State the objectives of the summary in the background section. 4. Provide background information by explaining research and studies. TIPS IN CONDUCTING A SUCCESSFUL SURVEY 1. Make sure that every question is necessary. 2. Keep it short and simple. 3. Ask direct questions. 4. Ask one question at a time. 5. Avoid leading and biased questions. 6. Speak your respondent’s language. 7. Use response scales whenever possible. 8. Avoid guiding grids or matrices for responses. GUIDELINES IN CREATING A SURVEY REPORT 1. Value Communicated Objective, accurate and honest presentation of facts and results 2. Basic Content May consist of eyewitness accounts of first – hand information. May contain facts, data, figures or statistics on or from people, events, phenomena, structures, experiments, questionnaires, interviews, and library research. May include materials and procedures or methods. 3. Modes of Ordering a. Chronological or time order. b. Geographical or space / spatial order c. Logical – Inductive and Deductive d. Problem – Solution e. Cause and Effect f. Formal g. Abstract – Introduction – Background – Statement of the problem h. Materials – Method or Procedure – Results – Discussion – Summary i. Conclusion and Recommendation 4. Basic Qualities of a Good Report a. Objective, not subjective point of view. b. Accurate, not sloppy presentation of facts, numbers, statistics and data c. Honest, nor false or incomplete details and results is it SURVEY or WALEY? INSTRUCTION: Now that you have learned how does a survey method works, it’s time to conduct your own. Using the prompt questions assigned for your respective groups, ask 20-30 students (You also have the choice to do it individually from Grade 11 to know how their answers vary from one another. Afterwards, use any graphical representation (e.g bar graph, pie graph, line graph etc. ) of your choice to illustrate your survey results including a textual description by giving the appropriate data that you have gathered from your survey. Make sure to show proofs of your quick “data gathering” by having some documentation. You will have to present your work in front of the class as creative as possible.
