HELP with Short Needs Analysis questionnaire!!
 
Hi everybody!

I really need help desperately!Cry

How to make a short Needs Analysis questionnaire that would help me, to find out what motivates my students to learn and what they want
to learn..

It �s for adults English class, and I have to include open questions.

I apologize for my ignorance, what is an open question? How can I make a good questionnaire? Do you know any site where I can find a ready questionnaire to check and make my own? I would really appreciate your help in this regard.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Cecilia
 An open question (I think) is a question where the person who answers can say whatever he /she wants. I mean, there are no options given.

Example:

What would you like to learn?  (open: many different answers are possible)

Would you rather learn about grammar or literature? (This question is not open, since only two answers are possible: either grammar or literature)

I know if I �ve been clear... I hope it helps anyway.

I don �t know any sites where you can get already-made quizzes but I just typed "Needs analysis questionnaire" in google and I got thousands of quizzes... Have you tried that?

Good luck,
Flavia.

I meant to say "I don �t know if I �ve been clear.." (Just the opposite of what I actually said. Oops!)

Open questions usually start with the words Who, what, where, when, why, how and which.  These require an answer with is longer than yes or no
 
So for a needs analysis you can ask questions like:
 
When do you need to use English
Where do you speak English the most
Why are you learning English
How often do you write in English
What is your main reason for using English
 
And 100 other different questions, depending upon what you want to find out about your group.
