Scannable paper questionnaires are available for any new schools and teachers identified after the preassessment visit held with the sampling and data collection (SDC) administrator. These are also available for those schools and teachers who would rather complete the paper version instead of the online version.
Once the final printed paper questionnaires have arrived at the materials, distribution, processing, and scoring (MDPS) site, a bar code is applied to each questionnaire. The questionnaires are then bundled in a pre-determined size with a bundle slip or header sheet. The bar code on the questionnaires and bundle slip are scanned before they are wrapped for distribution. The scanned bar codes are loaded into the MDPS distribution system. During the final packaging phase, a bundle number from each questionnaire type is assigned to a SCD administrator.
The SDC contractor uploads the bar code information into their electronic
preassessment visit system for assignment to the schools and teachers.
