You've probably heard the phrase "dog days of summer" — it refers to the hottest, most sluggish stretch of the season. The name actually comes from ancient astronomy: it marks the period when Sirius, the "Dog Star," rises alongside the sun, which early Romans associated with the year's peak heat. Fittingly, International Dog Day also lands this month (August 26)! So whether you're melting in the heat, powering through a slow August at work, or just soaking up the last of summer, we want to hear how you're spending your dog days. Task: Share one (or more!) of the following:🐶 A photo of your pet living their best summer life 🧊 Your go-to trick for beating the heat or staying productive when everyone else has slowed down 🌅 A "dog days" moment — a lazy weekend, a summer routine, or how you're winding down before fallComment on a few other posts to keep the conversation going! During the first week of each month, we post a new question, topic, or activity for you to connect with the comm

Low response rates hurting your data quality? In this 2-Minute Tip, learn how to design low-friction surveys in Qualtrics that keep respondents engaged from start to finish.   FAQ: How to Increase Survey Response Rates in Qualtrics What are the main causes of low survey response rates?Long surveys and high cognitive load are the leading causes of respondent drop-off. When a survey takes too long or requires too much mental effort to complete, respondents abandon it — which hurts your data quality.How long should a survey take to complete?Keep completion time under 9–10 minutes, especially for surveys taken on mobile devices. Shorter surveys reduce fatigue and improve completion rates.How many open-ended text questions should I include?Limit open-ended text fields to 3 or fewer. Writing responses creates high mental demand for respondents, so minimizing these questions helps reduce drop-off.What about Matrix Tables — should I use them?Simplify or avoid large Matrix Tables where possible

Back in January, we kicked off the year with Level Up 2026, where many of you shared a skill, certification, habit, or goal you were committing to for the year. We're halfway through 2026, time for an honest check-in!Task: Tell us how it's going.If you posted in January or forgot to but still set goals/resolutions: Did you stick with it, pivot, or completely abandon ship (no judgment!)? What surprised you along the way? Share any achievements (big or small) towards your ultimate goal! What's your plan for the second half of the year? If you didn't commit to a goal in January (or weren't part of the community yet), this is your chance to jump in: Pick a goal, skill, or habit you want to commit to for the rest of 2026 and share it now.
