Question:
How do I coordinate a group of students collect data? This is my first time to do such a duty I do not know much about data collection. Before I lead the students I would like to know the basics first. Please reply
Answer:
Hi Vellyn. Thanks for contacting CTB. I want to refer you to Chapter 3 in our Table of Contents under the Learn A Skill tab. That chapter and the related Toolkit will give you a very comprehensive introduction to decisions about data collection and will suggest questions you may need to take back to the organization wanting the data, in order to clarify what they really want to derive from the data.
There is a lot of information in that chapter and toolkit, so look through it and feel free to ask follow-up questions if we can be of further help.
Best wishes for success in your new role.
