Using the online survey tool

The online survey tool that I used to create the survey was accessed at https://survey.uwyo.edu/

-After typing in this URL, a welcome box will appear and within that box it will question if you would like to log in. Click on the icon that says here.

-Login

-Click on New Survey on the top menu
-Type a title and select "from scratch"
-Click the insert button to add and item
-Choose the item type (this is the question type) There are many types of questions possible, ranging from simple open-ended to choice-multiple answeres. I largely used choice-one answer (option buttons)
-Enter the question and possible answers (each answer can be scored to assist with later analysis)
- For my answers, I used the Likert scale: Strongly agree, Agree, Neutral, Disagree, Strongly disagree
-Click on save on the bottom menu bar
-When all the questions have been entered, click on done (lower menubar)
-Change the status to open
-To find the URL to send to respondents: go to deploy and record the e-mail link
