Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) is participating in Speak Up, a national online survey about the use of technology in schools. The information collected will help policy makers at the local, state, and national levels, as well as the business community contribute to the national dialogue about science, technology, and preparing students for the 21st century workforce.
FCPS will be participating in the survey through December 18. The online survey is open to students, parents, educators, and the community. It is a voluntary survey and takes approximately 20 minutes to complete. On December 10, a Keep in Touch message about the survey will be sent to students in grades 7-12 that have an email within FCPS 24-7.
To take the survey, please visit http://www.speakup4schools.org/speakup2015/ . Students will be asked for a secret word (password) when they take the survey. The secret word for students is fcps.
Aggregate survey results for FCPS will be available in February 2015.
Speak Up is an annual research project conducted by Project Tomorrow, a national education nonprofit organization that collects and reports the views of students in K-12, teachers, administrators and parents on 21st century education and technology.
