The Survey

Evaluating projects like this is always a bit hard. Verbal feedback is well and good, but surveys, I think, are the way to go. That way, feedback (and the project's successes and failures) are a bit more quantifiable.

The survey is based on four questions.

1. On a scale of 1-5, 1 being not helpful at all and 5 being very helpful, how would you rate the sources provided to you by the RRS?
The idea here is to quantify how successful we were in finding students useful sources. Hopefully, the good stuff we found for them will inspire them to move on to better their own research skills in the future.

2. On a scale of 1-5, 1 being not helpful at all and 5 being very helpful, how would you rate the thesis help you received through the RRS?
Since I did most of the thesis help stuff, I'm now wondering how to add that to the next phase of the project -- how do I easily create a teaching tool for SMA's to bear some of the thesis help burden, and make them better thesis-writers in the process?

3. Would you consider using the RRS again in the future, and/or recommending it to someone else?
If kids hated it, thought it was a massive waste of time, I want to know. That way, I can overhaul it and/or scrap it for something better.

4. Give us a suggestion on how we could improve the RRS.
Oh, how high school students love open-ended questions!
