Stanford Athletics COVID-19 Daily Wellness Survey: Redesigned
Redesign of the Daily Wellness Survey
A COVID-19 survey now used daily by every Stanford student-athlete living on campus.
Every student-athlete at Stanford University must complete a survey to ensure that they have no COVID-19 related symptoms before they are permitted to enter the Athletic Zone on campus. As a student-athlete myself, I noticed that the survey could be redesigned in a way that could take half the time that it did before. Through the Qualtrics survey tool, I updated the html code to redesign a few components of the survey so it was faster and more easily understood while it still contained all of the necessary questions to ensure our athletics community remains safe and healthy during the pandemic.
Before the redesign
Originally, the survey had a dropdown menu for the month, day, and year that the user was both filling out the survey as well as the last day that they used the athletic facilities.
The HTML Code
The biggest issue users had was with the way that they had to input dates into the survey. For both the current day as well as the last time that the athlete used the athletic facilities, the user had to tap and scroll on their phone three times to complete the date. Through html code, I was able to input a date picker/calendar so that the user now only has to tap on the screen once to pick the desired date.
The New Layout
After inputting the HTML code and publishing the new survey, the date picker is finalized in a dark blue color with grey numbers.
