The aim of this Getting Started tutorial is to teach you the basic skills so that you can apply them to forms you want to create.We have used a simple example to cover many of the techniques used in more complex questionnaires. In this tutorial you will learn how to:
- Make sure your ideas are clear by working from a drafted questionnaire.
- Design a basic 3-form questionnaire, including branching questions, option buttons, check boxes, text or comments boxes, along with naming fields so that your collated results are easy to interpret.
- Add very basic design elements to your questionnaire - a logo, a background colour, and some text colour.
- Produce an electronic form (PQF), and create a spreadsheet or database to store your collated results (this is really very easy!).
- Email the PQF to yourself - and then answer your own questions, submitting the responses back to yourself.
- Collate your responses and view your results.
