Space to Grow

Student and Teacher Questionnaires

Completion of the surveys is a vital component of the Space to Grow project as one of the main ways we obtain feedback from both teachers and students.   Other data sources for the educational research can be viewed on the Research Methodology page.

The Post intervention questionnaires are best carried out when all applicable classes who undertook Space to Grow have completed their relevant projects.  NB: In addition to the Student post AKQ survey for all classes, please select the appropriate Student SSSQ version for your class situation with the Space to Grow resources:  Implementing Student post SSSQ surveys or Non-implementing Student post SSSQ.

What questionnaires need to be completed?

Students_in_project

 

Students need to complete all sections of the two pre and post questionnaires: the Secondary Schools Science Questionnaire (SSSQ) Student version and the Astronomical Knowledge Questionnaire (AKQ). Teachers must complete all sections of the pre and post SSSQ Teacher version.  The AKQ is optional for teachers. 

Each page can be saved to allow participants to return later using their individual password in case of broadband 'dropout' or non-completion in the classroom.

When should you complete the questionnaires?

 

Questionnaires need to be completed every year on two occasions by both students and teachers.

The pre-questionnaires need to be completed by both students and teachers before starting the Space to Grow projects or their normal topic on astronomy in their Science or Physics classes.

The post-questionnaires need to be completed by both students and teachers at the conclusion of the Space to Grow projects or at the end of the astronomy topic covered within their Science or Physics classes.  Post questionnaire online access only becomes available when the pre survey questionnaires have been completed.

Why should you complete the questionnaires?

Teachers, we will automatically mark the Astronomical Knowledge Questionnaire.  We can email you the pre/post-questionnaire results for your students within 48 hours, provided the AKQ is completed online.  Email Carolyn Dow when your students have completed the pre and post SSSQ and AKQ questionnaires.
