General ⇒ How to setup a questionnaire.

[Hantabaru]

Hi

I am just starting out using LaTeX and I thought the easiest way to learn it would be to use a specific task to get into the swing of things.

I need to generate an evaluation questionnaire to provide feedback on a course of training I have given.

The questionnaire will involve some questions that are multiple choice answers, others will involve a box to write-in an answer to the questions.

A couple of concrete questions.

1. Is there a specific document class I should use for writing it.

2. Are there some specific commands it would help to readup on to generate the document.

I know its basic but this is my first attempt at generating something with LaTeX and I want to be able to write research using LaTeX based that will probably involve questionnaires.

Thanks for any help

The exercise (documentation here) or qcm (documentation here) packages could be useful.

Thanks for the quick reply

I have already had a look at the qcm package I will have a look at the exercise one.

One thing I neglected to mention is that the language is in Norwegian. Is it relatively straight-forward to change things such as "exercise" to something relevant in Norwegian? Is that sort of thing a setting described in the package information usually or do you have to go about it another way,

Appreciate the help

Hi Hantabaru,

see excercise documentation 4.1 Internationalisation, you could use \renewcommand*\ExerciseName{...} etc.
