WAVES IN MOTION ANNOUNCES DRAGON WEB SURVEYS / QUIZZES 6.5 FRO FILEMAKER PRO - Quizzing technology, and much more added to this instant web digital feedback tool Phoenix, AZ - April 2, 2002 - Tired of distributing and tabulating paper quizzes by hand? Wish you could instantly compile the latest customer feedback trends? Today, Waves in Motion released Dragon Web Surveys 6.5, an upgrade to the powerful, cross-platform, FileMaker Pro-based system which allows users to create, publish and tabulate internet-based surveys, with no web programming needed. With a re-designed interface, Dragon 6.5 adds the power of built-in support for web-based quizzes. Administrators can select between two types of questions (single and value) and assign a score to every question. When the responses are compiled, instantly view the totals scored by each individual on a summarized score card based on each section, or keep the results private. "Also new to surveys is the ability to attach a point value to any answer," said Vincenzo Menanno, President of Waves in Motion. "This very powerful feature allows the dragon to total up all the points, and rank them in order of importance. An example might be to attribute high points to companies with more than 20 employees, and sales of over 2 million. The Dragon makes it really easy to find potential leads. Just export results and sort by points." ------------------------- NEW FEATURES IN 6.5 ------------------------- - Support for building quizzes as well as surveys - New and improved interface - Compiles score for quiz and show scorecard (optional) - Columns for received and compiled responses - Point tracing for every possible answer element (survey only) - New Likert scale labeling options - Improved import and export - Anonymous masking for responses - Global headers and footers - Improved email announce - Improved reporting - Improved idle time processing ------------------------- STANDARD FEATURES INCLUDE ------------------------- - Unlimited surveys - Unlimited questions and answers - Unlimited responses - Support for embedded images - Isolation reports - Comparative reports (similar to cross tab) - Conditional branching - Export data - Style sheets for global modifications - Multiple (Section) page surveys - Multiple-user support (users build and manage their own surveys) - Authentication support provided with four different levels - Email notification for 'n' responses received - Announce a winner every 'n' responses - Real-time results processing - Idle-time processing - Redirect responses ------------------------- CUSTOMER SUCESS STORIES ------------------------- - Texas: "We used Dragon to survey our state's directors of special education to get their opinions concerning proposed legislation.

Dennis Price, Special Education Director Amarillo Independent School District - Michigan: "The Dragon's ease-of-use, intuitive interface, flexibility, and automatic scoring provided unprecedented real-time insight into how students were faring, and allowed for immediate intervention and class improvements. The Dragon permitted me to build a meaningful assessment tool and allowed the students to provide valuable input, yielding a much improved learning environment." Professor Kurt Paterson, Ph.D, Civil and Environmental Engineering Michigan Technological University - California: "In one day we had the survey up and running. The results are provided graphically and numerically in a way that is very useable. The hardest part for us now will be writing the surveys.
