Summary of Parent / Guardian Survey Results
(View the survey)

Unfortunately, I only received 8 of the 78 surveys sent home, so I am unable to draw any reliable conclusions.  A summary of the results is listed below.

Of the surveys received, only half knew about the online content prior to the survey. This is most likely due to the lack of "advertising" on my part.  I do mention the site during our curriculum night, but if the parents do not attend, the only way they might find out about it is through their student.

Those who had students that used the content stated that they noticed an increased interest in the course because of its use.

The remaining questions, were used to try to obtain information pertaining to the parents personal use of the online content and their opinions about what should be included.    Only one of the parents has used the online content to obtain information about the class, while half stated they would prefer communicating via email rather than the phone.  Over half the parents returning the survey said they would like to see grades posted online.
