Question 2

Write 4 terms then explain.

Answer 2

 Up-to-date - Information changes with time and without a date stamp could be too old to be useful. For example, a travel company should not use old data about holiday choices to decide which resorts to offer this year.
 Targeted - The question should be targeted at the employees who are going to use it.
 Comprehensible - The meaning of any information should be clear to the user. If the information is in a very complicated format then it will waste time and people could draw the wrong conclusions from it.
 Relevant - Data has to be related to the task the users are trying to investigate. There is no point using information about how people use social media unless the survey includes teenagers.
