Online Surveys – now available to all postgrads
Online Surveys is now available to taught postgraduates as well as research postgraduates and staff.
The tool allows you to design, share and analyse web-based surveys. Your survey can:
- be simple or more complex
- include a variety of question types, such as multiple choice, free text and scales
- be shared through a link or embedded in an email or social media post
The in-built reporting capabilities allow you to filter data and represent it with different graphs. You can also export the data into a PDF report or into other software for more analysis (for example Excel or SPSS).
To get started, you need to apply for an Online Surveys account.
Help us improve the A-Z of e-resources
Do you ever use our A-Z of e-resources on the Library and IT website?
We are working on replacing it with a tool you can search and filter, with more in-depth descriptions of each resource.
If you can spare a few minutes this summer to help us get it right, please email ismarketing@kent.ac.uk. We’ll set up an individual Teams call with you to demo the new tool and get your feedback.
Here’s a screenshot of our prototype, showing the search box, filters and a list of resources.
