THE CSI PROCESS
CSI is a quick, easy, reliable online-based process
After schools approach CSI team for engagement in the research, there are four steps to complete the process:
Step 1 – Ethics forms
Signed permission is granted to conduct the Index by school principals and by students over 16/parents or caregivers for students under 16.
Step 2 – Survey administration
The Qualtrix online survey consisting of 64 questions is administered. The survey takes approximately 30 minutes for students to complete.
Step 3 – Data clean up and report generation
The data is immediately uploaded into the University of Auckland database. Data is cleaned by the University of Auckland.
Each school is presented with a tailored report based on its own survey data. The report provides easily accessible interpretations of the data, for instance, infographics and graphical representations.
Step 4 – School and CAST shared analysis
If desired the University of Auckland can negotiate a time to work through the results of the survey with schools.
Due to high demand, it currently takes around 6-8 weeks to complete the four steps of the process.
