Module Assignment: Data driven Marketing research and analysis
Subject The questionnaire
Qualitative and quantitative research methods both have their place and purpose. Sometimes they are mixed. Each has its own tools, methods and protocols that make it suitable and valuable for particular marketing research projects.
The questionnaire is a valuable quantitative tool for the marketing researcher. Most of us have taken a questionnaire at some point. There are questionnaires of all types. Some are short - just a few simple questions - while others can be many pages long. Some are very complex and detailed, while others are more open-ended.
In this assignment, you will analyse questions compiled from various questionnaires and improve them as you see fit. You will then share your edited questions on the Collaboration Forum.
