Surveys

= Please click on the link below to complete the survey. The surveys are to be completed between June 10 through June 19, 2009. = Thank you for participating in the DimensionM Mini-grant Initiative. Th is immersive math video game has engaged students in the instruction and learning of mathematics and has generated much excitement and motivation in the various math classes. Our students’ captivation in solving problems is evident as they seek to learn the math concepts and strategies to compete against their classmates within and beyond the school walls. It is our hope that this excitement will continue in our math classrooms.

Last fall teachers and students participated in the 2008 pre-survey and pre-assessment in the evaluation process of DimensionM in New York City and as the year long evaluation concludes, we are requesting your assistance in conducting the post-survey and post-assessment. This yearlong evaluation seeks to evaluate: We are asking all teachers and students who participated in the fall 2008 pre-survey/assessment to complete the post survey/assessment no earlier than June 10, 2009 and no later than June 19, 2009 whether the program was used for the entire year or a short period. All responses are strictly confidential. It is our hope that all students and teachers will choose to participate, as this data will surely drive future implementation and funding opportunities. .
