Tippecanoe Valley Parents Can Take 2011 Speak Up Survey

Posted
AKRON – Are schools ready for online-only assessments mandated by 2014? Do parents think online tests are valid? How do students prefer to learn math? How are schools funding their technology?  What do students think is the difference between reading in print versus digital formats?

These are just some of the questions being asked during the national 2011 Speak Up Survey, which is open from now until Dec. 23.

Now in its eighth year, the Speak Up online survey will be completed by more than 300,000 kindergarten to 12th-grade students, educators and parents around the country. The annual survey about education and technology is completed for public, private and charter schools throughout the country; every school is eligible to participate. The results provide insights about education, technology and student aspirations to individual schools, state departments of education and national leaders.

Parents and guardians of Tippecanoe Valley students are encouraged to participate in the 2011 Speak Up Survey by going to http://www.tvsc.k12.in.us and clicking on the 2011 Speak Up Survey link in the top, right hand corner of the website, prior to Dec. 23.
