When you have completed these questions, please submit them through an attachment to an email sent to the instructer. Due date is 10-26-09
1. Isolate and identify a list of topics relevant to the campus community by randomly selecting five of your fellow students and asking them what they feel are the most important issues confronting them at CSUN. Get them to be specific and report how many students mention each topic .
2. From the results of #1 above, choose the one topic that received the most votes. Now write a pool of items (three) for each of the three types of questions about which we spoke--information, opinion, and demographic, that you think are relevant to the topic. Remember, for structured questions answers must be both mutually exclusive and exhaustive. In the case of opinion questions, they must be statements to which respondents would answer "strongly agree", "agree" "disagree" or "strongly disagree". In the event you do not know all the possible answers to your question, write them as an open ended question.
3. Once you have completed these questions, please test them on your fellow students. Pay special attention to their responses and note any questions or statements they may make in addition to their answers. If they ask you to reword the questions, simply repeat it.
4. Compile these responses and submit the followinga. The tally of the topics showing which one was selected.
b. Each question that was compiled, including any answer catagories.
c. The results of the answers to each question.
d. The additional comments students made in response to your questions.
