Classroom Facilitators Checklist
• Prior to administration of the survey:– Know who the Contact and IT persons are for your
district– Survey is strictly voluntary. Students may opt out at
any time!– Only County, Building, and District numbers are
required to be answered. Any other question may be skipped
– All facilitators need to follow the same procedures
![Page 4: Iowa Youth Survey 2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56812a8e550346895d8e38a2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Before students enter the room:
• Be sure all computers are turned on and ready to go, with the survey open from the link you will receive from us
• Be sure to have the following written on the board:– County Number(s) Any county where a student from your district
may live.– District Number– Building Number– Be sure ALL students have the correct numbers entered. This is
the only time during the survey you may walk around the room and check answers if you wish. OR have them recite them aloud. The correct numbers are very important!!

During survey completion
• Monitor carefully to be sure students do not look at others’ screens.
• Fill out student count on Building Census form.• Do NOT walk around the room. • Notify school counselor later of any student who seems
distressed or upset by the survey questions.• If a student needs to quit the survey before finishing,
have him or her close the browser window. All previous screens will be saved.

Problems during the session??
• Note any problems with computers, survey completion issues, or any other problems on the Building Census Form.
• This is the form with the student count and will be submitted to the District Contact Person.
• One Building Census Form must be completed for each building; the District Contact Person will collate all the information.
• It is very important that this form is accurate.– Amy Mason will discuss this form in more detail later in the
training.

Avoiding Problems
• Make sure students who should not take the survey do not!
• Provide a reliable way to track students who are opted out of the survey. Provide list to all teachers who will be administering the survey.
• Conduct survey during time frame. (Sept. 29-Oct. 31)• Allow adequate time-minimum of 2 weeks-for parents to
return form to opt a student out.• Consider ‘active consent’ if students will need direct
assistance

Avoiding Prob. Continued
• Reading the survey aloud. Do as a separate group privately.
• Not everyone finished? Have them close the browser window. (make a note of the # of students who do not finish on the Building Census form)
• Do NOT rely on battery power for laptops! ALL laptops must be plugged into a power source. Data will be lost if they lose power.
• All computers must be connected to the internet for the survey to work.

Lessons continued
• Census forms were not filled out correctly, or even submitted. Amy will talk about these forms.
• As students move through the survey, they must use ‘next page’ and ‘previous page’ buttons. Do NOT use back button.
• When students complete the survey, they will see a notice that the survey was successfully submitted.
• It cannot be repeated often enough, do not put the URL for the survey on your school web site or include in any newsletters or other public documents!
