Use the SHED and want an easier way to see all the survey questions over time? Now you can! I've built a new question tracker to show the questions asked in each year of the survey at shed.jefflarrimore.com (1/2)
It is searchable either for specific terms, by question code, or by survey year. And for questions that have been revised, you can pull up a drop-down to see a track-changes line edit of what has changed. Feedback and suggestions (including potential enhancements) are welcome! (2/2)
