Grounded growth assessment | Fillout and Grounded Growth Assessment - Google Docs Guide

This is a step-by-step guide for Grounded growth assessment | Fillout and Grounded Growth Assessment - Google Docs

By Shira Sneg

In this guide, we'll learn how to set up a grounded growth assessment using Fillout. The process involves crafting questions with multiple options and setting up a scoring system to evaluate responses. We'll explore how to duplicate questions and adjust settings to differentiate between options that resonate most and least with respondents. Additionally, we'll discuss how to use a Google Doc to organize and randomize statements for each question. By the end, you'll understand how to compile results to highlight strengths and growth opportunities for participants.

Let's get started

This is the grounded growth assessment in Fillout's edit mode. We'll examine how I crafted the first question to understand its setup, then apply it to the next ones. The first question, like any other, will have 10 options in multiple choice format which we copy and paste from the Google doc.

Click on page "1_A" to see an example setup
Step #2: Click on page "1_A" to see an example setup
3
To work on a question, click on it
Step #3: To work on a question, click on it
4
In A versions of the question, write "Select the statement you resonate with the most"
Step #4: In A versions of the question, write  "Select the statement you resonate with the most"

First, I copy the same question: A and then B from the Google Doc (will be shown later, we're first reviewing Fillout). Next, I edit the statement to match if it resonates with them the least.

5
Click on "1_B" to see the 'least' version
Step #5: Click on "1_B" to see the 'least' version
6
In B versions of the question, write "Select the statement you resonate with the least"
Step #6: In B versions of the question, write  "Select the statement you resonate with the least"

We do this for each question.

To duplicate a page, go to the 3-dot menu. Note that this is useful when doing Versions A and B of the same question but not for different questions.

Scoring question answers

Each multiple choice question is a quiz/scored question.

11
To get to quiz scoring, click on the question
Step #11: To get to quiz scoring, click on the question
12
A menu will appear where you click the first icon for setting the quiz answer key
Step #12: A menu will appear where you click the first icon for setting the quiz answer key
13
Version A = the most statement, so each one gets 5 points
Step #13: Version A = the most statement, so each one gets 5 points
14
Version B = the least statement, so each one gets 1 point (see below)
Step #14: Version B = the least statement, so each one gets 1 point (see below)
15
Make sure to click Done after inputting the scores each time so it's saved.
Step #15: Make sure to click Done after inputting the scores each time so it's saved.

The Google Doc

For your information and our record-keeping on the backend, each multiple choice answer has a related theme, eg Connections, Storytelling, etc.

Each question has the themes in a randomized order.

17
Copy the answers from here for each version A and B for each question on Fillout, as covered above in the Fillout instructions, using the Bulk Add and then removing the theme names.
Step #17: Copy the answers from here for each version A and B for each question on Fillout, as covered above in the Fillout instructions, using the Bulk Add and then removing the theme names.
18
Or you can just copy and paste the exact statement per multiple choice question
Step #18: Or you can just copy and paste the exact statement per multiple choice question

At the end, we need to provide the quiz scoring using text-based answers. Based on their answers, participants will see a compilation that highlights their scoring on each theme. The respondent will see 3 things:

  1. Theme they scored the highest

  2. Theme they scored the lowest

  3. 2nd lowest theme

19
For each theme, you'll see the 3 different version of answers:
When they scored the highest, lowest, or second lowest.
Step #19: For each theme, you'll see the 3 different version of answers:When they scored the highest, lowest, or second lowest.
20
For instance, for lowest score, we copy 'Growth opportunity' for the title
Step #20: For instance, for lowest score, we copy 'Growth opportunity' for the title
21
Then we copy this but either without the quotation marks or remove them when in Fillout
Step #21: Then we copy this but either without the quotation marks or remove them when in Fillout
22
Make sure to include the Next Steps bit when applicable (it's for either highest/lowest score of the theme)
Step #22: Make sure to include the Next Steps bit when applicable (it's for either highest/lowest score of the theme)
23
This means that each person will see 3 different themes in their end screen: the highest, lowest, and second lowest.
Step #23: This means that each person will see 3 different themes in their end screen: the highest, lowest, and second lowest.
