Information for researchers on how to create surveys

Tools for creating surveys

Charles Sturt University provides access to online platforms like Qualtrics and REDCap for survey-based research. These platforms offer templates, branding tools, skip and branching logic, and mobile-friendly design.

For less formal surveys or teaching-related data collection, Microsoft Forms and Brightspace survey tools are also available. 

Regardless of the platform, it’s important to customise features such as response validation, navigation buttons, and question sequencing to enhance usability and data accuracy. Always preview your survey across devices and browsers to ensure accessibility for all users.
