StudentAmbassadors/Activities/Desktop-Survey

This survey is open only to:
- Firefox Student Ambassadors and Mozilla Reps
- Windows desktops/laptops/tablets users
(if you have access to a Mac/Linux/Android system, inform the sender of this link).

Goal: Find system configuration of Windows desktop/laptop/tablet computer users.

Task

Reach out to two types of target groups equally to collect data.

• 1. Users having Firefox in their Computer
• 2. Users without Firefox in their Computer

Step 1: Get Permission

• You must have the users' permission to view/upload their computers' system information
• We do not need the users' name, email or any other information that personally identifies them

Step 2: Collecting data with permission

• To find system configuration on Windows, use msinfo32 (Step by step instructions: http://www.wikihow.com/Find-System-Specs)

Step 3: Uploading data

- There are two options to upload the data:

• 1. Directly uploading 'msinfo log file'
  • Before uploading the file, rename it to [your-first-name][count-of-files-you-uploaded].txt
• 2. If the user does not permit uploading 'msinfo log file', read msinfo output and type below

Other Instructions

• It is important that for every computer with Firefox, you must find one computer without Firefox.
• If the computer has more than one user, ask for the total number of users
• Find the oldest to the youngest computers - we don't want only the most recent ones
• Don't go into unsafe places or places where you are not confidant about to gather the data. Your safety is more important than the data.
• Do not collect the data in unauthorized ways, always ask permission.

Incentives

• FSA who uploads 16 or more 'msinfo32' file with correct/unique data would receive a special Swag Pack & a Open Badge.
• FSA who uploads 6 or more 'msinfo32' file with correct/unique data would receive a special Open Badge.

NOTE: It is important that while collecting data, for every computer with Firefox, you must find one computer
without Firefox. 

Example: to be able to be eligible for the Swag pack, you need to collect data from 8 computers with Firefox and 8
computers without Firefox.
