Participate in a research study about cultural perspectives on education on PEI
A group of graduate students at UPEI want to hear views and perspectives from the public of the educational culture on PEI. They are conducting an online survey to gather opinion in six specific areas: social promotion, large-scale assessment, the role of parents in education, mathematics, aboriginal culture, and leadership.
The online survey can be completed in 15 minutes and can be found here.
'This project gives our graduate students a very hands-on experience,' said Dr. Tess Miller, associate professor of Education, and the teacher of the Quantitative Statistics course gathering this information. 'They work with real data, and do real analysis.'
Information gathered in the survey will be analyzed by the students and will be presented at a public event on Thursday March 26 in room 242 of UPEI's Don and Marion McDougall Hall. The presentations begin at 4:30 pm.
