MODULE II: Survey Authoring
Introduction to ODK/KOBO collect survey authoring.
Hands-on exercises

• Design forms using a web interface using:
  • XLS
  • ODK Build
  • Kobo forms

• Hands-on Exercise

BASIC SURVEY AUTHORING
Survey authoring in Excel, ODK build and Kobo Toolbox is a simple process once you understand the basic XLSform syntax and the general principles.
To make our learning process smoother a generic survey example will be used across the training, this sample survey is an example form that has been designed for training purposes.
A course project using a real survey from participants may be the best way to achieve better understanding.

Intermediate survey authoring
By this time, we have reviewed most data types and you should be comfortable with the creation of basic surveys. We will now focus on strengthening the logic flow of the survey questions and we will introduce conditional elements to increase data quality and validation.
Multiple Language Support, Hints, Metadata, Conditional survey constructs,
Advanced survey Authoring
You should be comfortable now with the use of required, constraint and relevant. By now, the participants should be able to author an intermediate survey that validates the data entered by the enumerator improving data quality. The use of relevant conditions is key to a successful ; Advanced survey authoring presents some miscellaneous syntax elements that will improve your survey. We will cover the use of groups for skipping several questions and present groups of questions at this level. We will also improve the formatting of our survey with the use of the 'appearance' column and finally, we will present the cascading select functionality that will allow presenting cascading multiple-choice selections with dependencies between them.
