Survey of student opinions.



On march 21st I made a survey to students that are actually in 2º E in Marítimo High School in Valparaiso. This survey is about how adolescents like to be taught.
Here are their answers:


Number of people              :  34 Students.



Most popular options          :  
  • Ítem 2   : Very much agree - agree
  • Ítem 4   : Very much agree - agree
  • Ítem 6   : Very much agree - agree
  • Ítem 7   : Very much agree - agree
  • Ítem 16 : Disagree - totally disagree




Less popular options:
  • Ítem 1  : Disagree - totally disagree
  • Ítem 3  : Undecided
  • Ítem 4  : Undecided
  • Ítem 5  : Undecided
  • Ítem 7  : Undecided
  • Ítem 7  : Totally disagree
  • Ítem 17 : Undecided




Possible explanation:

     Students want a teacher who dress well, cares about his/her teaching, who trats with respect to his/her students. For them, a good teacher is worm and friendly, he/she doesn't use violence. 
            Out students need a teacher who cares about their learning more than he/she cares about his/her teaching.
