I am trying an online administration of the Texas school district survey for the first time. So far (after about 1.5 weeks) we have a 6-8% response rate and have discovered about the same percentage of incorrect addresses. We are fixing those and will complete wave one soon. It looks like our online response rate is tracking at about half of the mail survey response rate.
I anticipate doing three waves online followed by a 2 or 3 waves by mail. I really hope the online component can ease the survey process and reduce some costs.
I will keep everyone posted on the success of the online mode.
For those interested, we have about 150 responses after two waves. That represents about 13%.
