DAILY BRIEF SURVEY FEEDBACK
Spring 2021 University Relations assessed user satisfaction of the Daily Brief to determine the effectiveness of faculty and staff internal communications with an 8-question survey. The survey had a 25% response rate. Respondents reported a 90% satisfaction with the overall quality of the Daily Brief (i.e., 51% Satisfied and 39% Very Satisfied). However, 6% reported dissatisfaction with the ease of submission (i.e., 3% Somewhat Dissatisfied, 2% Dissatisfied, and 1% Very Dissatisfied). As a result of your feedback, the Daily Brief will increase the word limit to 250-300 words and create a new submission form. Information Technology is currently working to implement these changes as well as make the newsletter responsive and resizable. Look for these changes sometime during the spring semester.
