We need each student to be able to answer each survey in 3-5 minutes tops. In order to achieve this, I need input from you guys on which questions to ask from each category. Please take a look at questions.md and think about:

I need feedback from all of you in order to properly discuss how we are to create a good survey. You can all place your answers here so that we may have a discussion and be able to move forward.

I'm a little confused. Which of the three categories are you referring to about. I checked the questions.md link, and I saw the different types of surveys. Are the three categories Ordinal Linkert, Interval/Ratio, Categorical, and written feedback? Also, when you say each survey. How many surveys will the other groups have to take? Or are the surveys the same thing as the categories that I have mentioned before.

Hey, no problem. There are 30 students in our class, each group has 5 members, except for group 4, which has 2. The idea is that each group will receive feedback from 25 students, except for group 4, which will get feedback from 28 students. I'm also thinking that the professor can also give feedback as well. With such a large amount of students and groups, we need to limit the amount of questions that we are asking each individual to reduce what is called survey fatigue. With this in mind, I think that the best idea is to present three categories to ask questions about. I'm not sure what the categories will be at this moment, and that's what I want help from everybody with. Basically, when a user logs in after a group's presentation, they will be presented with three choices, let's say how the well designed the project is, how well it used the technologies they learned in the class and whether they think that the project is useful. The trick here is make each student pick one category that they liked and one that they didn't. When they pick their categories, they will have three questions from each group given to them, on a scale from one to ten, or a likert scale (strongly disagree, disagree, neutral, agree, strongly agree). The idea with setting up the questions in this format is that it will ensure that the the groups receive responses that are both critical about their projects and responses that offer praise in order to both provide a sense of confidence as well as a chance to see where they need to improve. This keeps the criticism constructive. Finally, there will be two free form questions, one for the group, and one for the professor. These will take the form of (a) what would you change about the project, and (b) Do you feel you can make a similar project with what you learned in this class, why or why not? With all this in mind, we end up with 3 categories, 9 ordinal/likert questions (3 for each category) and 2 free form questions. I will be adding a data flow chart later today that demonstrates how a lot of this will work later tonight. Also, did you check out SurveyDesign101.md? It answers a lot of your original questions. If you have any other questions, let me know, I'm happy to help.
