While surveys appear surprisingly easy to plan and conduct, they are fraught with pitfalls for the unwary.
That said, technical communicators can use surveys as
a tool to enhance their understanding of audiences,
assess the effectiveness of their communication
products, and determine the value of technical
communications to their company--if they follow wellestablished
social science and communication science
methodologies. This workshop will provide you with
the foundations you need for developing, conducting,
and managing surveys; analyzing the data, interpreting
surveys and reporting your results.
