Ethics survey

I want to conduct/provide an online survey about COSIMA practices and ethics prior to our July hackathon event. I have no skill in devising surveys at all. So, please feel free to edit/offer possible survey questions below:

  • How long have you been involved in COSIMA (in any way)? Years

  • COSIMA functions well as community. Disagree<->Agree

  • Spending time on COSIMA efforts is worthwhile. Disagree<->Agree

  • I understand how ideas, data and code is shared in COSIMA. Disagree<->Agree”

  • I like how ideas, data and code is shared in COSIMA. Disagree<->Agree

  • COSIMA should talk more about ethics and best practices. Disagree<->Agree

  • COSIMA has positively impacted my research. Disagree<->Agree

Short answer questions’s:
What is the purpose or value of COSIMA to you?
Any ideas on how COSIMA could better manage growth?
What should be the expectation from someone when they use community-developed code or model output?
What do you like about COSIMA?
What do you dislike about COSIMA?

Once we settle on some questions, I’ll create the survey and provide a link.

Thanks!

I like the questions.

I think we might need one like

“I feel I know how ideas, data and code is shared in COSIMA. Disagree<->Agree”

Preceding the

“ I like how ideas, data and code is shared in COSIMA. Disagree<->Agree”

?

Also, depending on whether the survey is anonymous or not perhaps a question like

“How long have you been involved in COSIMA (in any way)?” with a few answers below? E.g.

<6 months | 6months - 2years | 2-5 years | >5 years

?
