Speak Up 2007

Speak Up is facilitated each year by Project Tomorrow, the nation’s leading nonprofit group focused on science, math and technology K-12 education.

The Speak Up project collects and reports out annually on authentic, unfiltered feedback from K-12 students, teachers, parents and school leaders from every state on 21st century education and technology issues. Speak Up is conducted 100% via online surveys and every school and district in the United States and Canada is eligible to participate. The online surveys are open for participation until Dec 21st, 2007.

Here are just a few topics that will be addressed in Speak Up 2007:

• Creating schools of the future.
  
• Why students like gaming and the benefits to using them for school work.
  
• Engaging students in science.
  
• Helping students feel connected and valued at school.
  

School (and District) Speak Up data will be available online, free-of-charge in late January 2008. You can use this data to:

• Benchmark your school or district against national responses.
  
• Identify "what's working" and potential opportunities for improvement.
  
• Strengthen student engagement in school
  
• Facilitate conversations with community members.
  
• Support your grant writing efforts.
