Human Rights Survey

So for my project I am going to be developing a survey to gauge opinions about human rights in Carrboro. I will just be taking the first initial steps, mainly the actual creation of the survey. The actual implementation of the survey will take place in the Fall.

So, since we are supposed to blog about our failures too, I guess I'll be the first. I was planning on creating a mini-survey type thing to hand out at the July 4th festivities in Carrboro, but on Friday after creating my document, I realized that all of the libraries were closed all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. So I wasn't able to print copies in order to distribute.

Luckily, this was only a small extra thing that I was going to be doing, so I will still continue to create a more comprehensive survey to distribute in the fall. Also, I may find some time to distribute the mini survey if I notice any big events happening in Carrboro during this session. Please let me know if anyone has any ideas for questions that they think would be interesting to include in the survey.

  1. This survey sounds really interesting. Just a couple questions about it:

    What is your demographic? Is it going to be a random or non-random sample? What are your goals for the survey?

    Im just wondering as Im interested in which groups might be surveyed. I have a similar survey in mind for an independent project in the fall. Also, I would be really interested in seeing the questions that you developed. Best of luck!
