Results of Online Polls

1. Do you think the results are 100% accurate? Why or why not? Not everyone in the class answered my polls, therefore the results do not accurately represent the whole class. It may represent the partial opinion of the class but not exactly 100% accurate.
2. How much of an impact do you think the wording of the questions has on the answers you received? The wording of the questions affect the results a lot. This is because with the word choice people will respond it differently due to the way they individually understand the question.
3. Did you get the results you expected from your online polls? Why? I did not have an exact idea of what everybody would answer. The answers I did get though where the typical common ones that everybody knows. The answers were very similar in many of the questions.
4. If you wanted to do an online poll with the students of Tecnologico de Monterrey asking them how much time and effort they spent doing homework this year, what are the steps you would take to complete that online poll? First of all you would need for the year to end in order to know the total amount of time spent in the year. Then consider the usual amount og homework received, the capacity or speed of the students, and then possibly the subject and level of difficulty of the homework.
5. Do you think online polling could help the administration of Tec de Monterrey find out more about their students? Or do you think that the results would not be accurate? Why or why not? I think it could be a very effective way to find out information about the students as long as everybody participated and answered it. Also they need to take their time answering it and not just answer it with whatever answer to get it over with.
6. How do you think the results of your polls would be different if you asked your classmates the questions in person? if we were to ask the questions in person the answers would be more accurate because we would be face to face with the person therefore getting their answers in that moment. they would right away think about it and reply.
7. In what ways do you think online polling using Google Spreadsheets can be improved? Or was it easier to create an online poll than you originally thought? Explain I think it could be more user friendly, although it is a big advantage that it designs the poll on its own and all you do is put the words in. With other programs you would have to do all the work, design it, plus write in the things. therefore its easy to make them, also quick.
