✓ TIP:
By default, your Program Activity list shows records that you have created in the current reporting year. Click the Filter button to filter for other records.
✓ TIP:
Survey(s) must be attached before response data can be entered. If a survey is not yet attached, add a survey before proceeding. See the following instructions for adding a survey:
Attach a Survey to a Program Activity
Attach a Survey to a Program Activity
✓ TIP:
You can also use a public link to collect survey responses, instead of entering survey data by hand. Participants will complete the survey on a device, and responses will automatically appear in PEARS. You will not be able to edit responses collected with a public link, but you can delete responses, if needed.
For more information, on using a public link, see Collect Survey Response Data with a Public Link.
✓ TIP:
Surveys may include required fields. The red asterisk * next to the heading of a field indicates that the field is required. You will not be able to save until you have added input into that field.
NOTE:
If you are entering aggregate responses (rather than individual responses), the response form will be slightly different. For multiple choice questions, fields appear next to each option. Enter the total number of responses next to each option.
