teacher/grad student needs help!
Hi,
I'm not even sure if this is the right place for this question, but I have a huge favor to ask. I am a special education teacher working on my Masters. In my statistics class I have to do a short research paper that also involves collecting my own data. My paper is focusing on job/work satisfaction scores, comparing regular education teachers to special education teachers (at any level). Now, I'm loaded down with special education teachers (I work at an alternative school), but I don't know any regular/general ed teachers to complete my survey! So, I'm asking if there are any general education teachers in this tribe who would be willing to complete a 12-question survey? They are all just rating on a scale from 1-5, no written responses required. I'm trying to figure out a way to post it somewhere, but as of right now, I'd have to email it to you, and you'd email me back. Anyone? Please? Pretty please? Pretty please with sugar on top? Thanks for your time! |

However, you'd get a much better and much more controlled sample if you went to your local schools and passed out the survey. That way you can get the grades you want, and you'll be closer to comparing apples to apples since your respondents would be from the same area. And, most importantly, you'll have a better confidence that the people answering your survey are who they say they are. On a newsgroup you have no way of knowing if the people are for real or not. I'm willing to bet that if you called the principals at a couple of local schools and explained what you wanted and why, you'd find one who would let you pass out the survey at their school. Good luck, Bizby |

Good luck, Bizby I agree completely with Bizby. By going on the internet, you'll have no control over selection of the group. You might even have students or bored, retired people taking the test. You'll have not way to find out who is really taking the test because people are not always honest on the internet. Jeff |
