Preparing and Fielding High-Quality Surveys: Practical Strategies for Successfully Implementing Neighborhood and School Climate Surveys in Promise Neighborhoods
Author: Kaitlin Franks Hildner, Elizabeth Oo, Peter A. Tatian | Year of Publication: 2015
This document builds on earlier guidance on preparing and administering surveys in chapter 7 of “Measuring Performance: A Guidance Document for Promise Neighborhoods on Collecting Data and Reporting Results.” The document also expands on lessons learned from the experiences of Promise Neighborhoods implementation grantees to provide practical guidance on how to prepare and manage high-quality neighborhood and school surveys. Where appropriate, specific examples from Promise Neighborhoods grantees are provided to illustrate creative or effective solutions to particular survey challenges. Though this document is geared toward the requirements of Promise Neighborhoods, much of the guidance should also be helpful to other organizations conducting similar neighborhood or school surveys in their communities.
