Personal Testimony: To begin my exploration of this website, I had to create a free user id and password (you can also choose a $200/yr "pro" account, or a $899/yr "corporate" account, each having more and more options available). Signup was quick and easy; you are only required to type your name, a username, your email, and a password. I decided to create my own survey, titled "w200" that closes on April 11 at 8:00PM, has a limit of one response per computer, and a maximum quota of 1000 responses. I created a survey for anyone who has taken w200. I didn't include a section for names, as I wanted it to be anonymous. I included 2 multiple choice questions and 3 free-response questions. All are mandatory except for the suggestions/constructive criticism section. My survey is linked below
My Survey: w200 Survey
Tips, Suggestions, Etc: When you choose the free account, you are limited to a certain number of surveys /polls/quizzes you can do. So, choose carefully when you begin. Explore all of the options, formats, and styles you can use in a survey or quiz BEFORE posting the survey. This can be a very useful tool and it is extremely fast and easy to create. Try it out!
