This is a really straightforward but still rigorous book on the perils and the joys of doing surveys on-line. This method is increasingly being used by our doctoral candidates and to have a reference book that details the specific issues is excellant. Well produced and highly readable.
This is a key tool for the masters level Advanced Practitioner Inquiry module which leads to the work based project phase.An excellent text, fit for a variety of research projects.
Too detailed/specialised for this module
very useful collection of advice, well-referenced, it is rare to find a text on this subject
Gives a comprehensive and accessible overview of the online survey process, while pointing to a great selection of sources for further reading.
A comprehensive text on designing surveys and interpreting their findings. Clear with good use of illustrations.
Will recommend to students carrying out large surveys on line. Very detailed step by step requirements from setting up to analysing and presenting data.
With the growing tendency to carry out surveys online amongst U/G & P/G students this book allows student researchers to consider the pros and cons of such an approach.
good and useful introduction and instruction manual, very good resource for students who first encounter/prepare online surveys
