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.
