Understanding the Questionnaire in Open Data Kit
Introduce interviewers to functionalities of a Computer-Assisted Personal Interviews (CAPI) survey using Open Data Kit (ODK), through metaphors and parallels with paper surveys
This presentation explores key functions of an electronic questionnaire in Open Data Kit (ODK), including prefills, loops, error messages, and filters/skips. Participants will be able to conceptualize and demystify these behind-the-scenes functions through metaphors and examples, which can be particularly helpful for those who are new to computer-assisted personal interviews (CAPI) and/or less comfortable with technology.
