TITLE
OF INFORMATION COLLECTION: Participant and User Feedback on
Child and Family Data Archive (CFData) Events and Resources
PURPOSE: The Child and Family Data Archive (CFData) preserves and disseminates hundreds of datasets and accompanying documentation to support secondary data analysis, and ultimately inform practice and policy to better serve young children and their families. To improve CFData’s primary goal of supporting data discovery and use, CFData proposes to collect information from users and participants of data webinars, trainings, and workshops. Feedback collected from the four questionnaires and facilitator-led user testing experience will be used to support continuous quality improvement efforts. Specifically, feedback will be used to improve the approaches for developing and conducting webinars, training, and workshops as well as developing and disseminating resources including the website, newsletters, infographics, and other resources. Information collection efforts include the following:
Feedback on CFData Webinars or Workshops/Training Events (Instrument 1): This survey requests feedback on workshops and training events and will be used to improve future efforts.
Feedback on CFData Outreach (Instrument 2): This survey requests feedback on outreach materials and will be used to improve these and future materials.
Feedback Questionnaire for CFData Resources (Instrument 3): This survey requests feedback on resources and will be used to improve these and future materials.
User Experience Testing of the CFData Website (Instrument 4): This user testing activity will elicit feedback on the CFData website and will be used to assess and improve website usability.
DESCRIPTION OF RESPONDENTS: Respondents will include individuals who are interested and/or have participated in a CFData webinar/workshop; professors and librarians contacted by CFData to share CFData outreach materials with students at their institution; user experience testers of the CFData website; CFData mailing list subscribers; and other users who have accessed a CFData dissemination product.
