This is one of the few books I can honestly say is best suited for the novice researchers and those embarking on survey research for the first time or even for those who are experts in preliminary survey designs but want to gain more insights and knowledge into the ins and outs of survey design. This 119 pages is truly pleasant to read and easy to finish. Furthermore, it is extremely simple and straightforward. It is suitable for all our first year MA TESOL students. What I believe is among its greatest features is the elaborations on the best approach to avoid shortcomings in survey designs. Furthermore, the book has plenty of examples for even the minor issues in building questionnaires. What was really great about the book is that it took less than four hours to finish!
This book is well thought out and is a valuable resource for those starting out on the road of questionnaire design. The additional resources provided are useful for evaluating the quality of existing measures.
Very good examples which help MA students to create good questionnaires. The book also contains good supporting materials to work with student during tutorials.
