The Council for Technology in Education in partnership with NMSTE and Innovate-Educate NM is requesting participation from your district's students, teachers, administrators, and parents in the 2009 Speak Up online survey for the purpose of gathering statewide and local information. Speak Up is an annual national research project facilitated by Project Tomorrow. The purpose of the project is to:
• Collect and report unfiltered feedback from students, parents and teachers on key educational issues.
• Use data to stimulate local conversations.
• Raise awareness about the importance of including the viewpoints of students, parents, and teachers in the education dialogue.
Districts and schools with the highest rate of participation will receive prizes!
Wide spread participation is encouraged to advance technology at state & local levels. Your participation is an invaluable contribution!
