Student Motivation--from their perspective.
In general, schools do not seek out student opinion enough. I'm trying to figure out effective methods of gathering student input on all school matters. What follows is a start:
I utilized Survey Monkey to test initial surveys to gather student opinions on discipline and motivation. Here are some results regarding motivation, from a survey of 100 8th grade students at Shelby County East Middle School (KY).
77% of students stated that teacher enthusiasm for subject was a major factor in their motivation.
43% of students stated that technology use motivated them.
10% stated that "grades a lot" motivated them to work hard.
Out of 10 class activities, these middle school students chose class or group discussion, partner work, and computer use as strategies that motivate them to participate/and or help them remember lessons most effectively.

Outstanding. Did the results surprise you Paul? What will you do with the results? Do you intend to share them with parents, fellow teachers, administration?
Hey Roger,
I'm hoping to continue developing new and more effective surveys to gather more student feedback. I will be sharing the results with my coworkers.
hi, have some points taken from you post. thanks!
I can only guess how hard it is sometimes to find and complete a serious task at university. As a former student every man can name several logical reasons for youngsters to look here to buy descriptive essays during their studies. It comes as a rule for anyone that critical point of view is a must for a prosperous mind. I ask only the best writing companies to perform my scheduled tasks and make a good arrangements of my own ideas.
