Using Questionnaires for Workstation Assessment

Using Questionnaires for Workstation Assessment

Hi, I'm currently looking at ways a Workstation Assessment can be done on Moodle.

The workstation assessment consists of questions such as:

  1. Is your chair stable?
  2. Does it have a working seat height adjustment?

Most of the questions are basic Yes and No questions with a few sentence based answer questions. For certain questions if the user selects 'Yes' then additional questions are shown and the participant has to answer the additional questions, if they select 'No' then the additional questions don't show and the participant can move onto the next mandatory question.


At the end once the participant has completed the Workstation Assessment an e-mail needs to be sent to their relevant department admin notifying that they've completed the Workstation Assessment.


Has anyone done something similar to this on Moodle? If so how did you go about starting it?

You can definitely do that with the questionnaire module.

It has the ability to make questions dependent on answers to other questions:
https://docs.moodle.org/33/en/Adding/editing_a_questionnaire#Allow_branching_questions
https://docs.moodle.org/33/en/Questionnaire_Conditional_branching

And, it can notify specific roles/people when a questionnaire has been completed:
https://docs.moodle.org/33/en/Adding/editing_a_questionnaire#Send_submission_notifications
https://docs.moodle.org/33/en/Setting_up_a_questionnaire#Submission_options

The feedback module may also be able to do these things.

Hi Mike, do you know which plugin I'd require to be able to have the parent question functionality? I currently can't see options for parent questions.

Thanks

Its a standard feature of the questionnaire module. You just need to select the option in the questionnaire settings (see: https://docs.moodle.org/33/en/Adding/editing_a_questionnaire#Allow_branching_questions).

Note that only "yes/no", "radio" and "dropdown" questions are eligible to be parent questions.

Hi Mike,


Thanks got it sorted. Regarding the emails part of my query, I've just created a short list to help explain what I meant.


Head of Apples      Head of Grape      Head of Pear
Apple 1 Grape 1 Pear 1
Apple 2 Grape 2 Pear 2
Apple 3 Grape 3 Pear 3

So looking at the table above, when a Apple completes the questionnaire then only the Head of Apple will get an email informing that one of the Apple team members have completed the questionnaire. If a Grape completes the questionnaire then only the Head of Grape will get an email ...etc.

Is it possible to create something like that on Moodle or does it have to be that when Grape 3 completes the questionnaire, all 3, Head of Apple, Grape and Pear will receive an email saying Grape 3 has completed the questionnaire?


Regards,

Jit

Assuming that your "Apples", "Grape" and "Pear" are Moodle groups, then you can use https://docs.moodle.org/33/en/Adding/editing_a_questionnaire#Send_submission_notifications.

You need to use "separate" groups, and then as long as the "Heads" have a role that includes 'mod/questionnaire:submissionnotification' and are a member of that group, then they will only receive notifications for that group.
