What My Students Think About Our Class Blogging…

Posted on December 21st, 2007 in Classroom Stuff, Critical Reflection, Mathletics, Surveys by jlietze  Tagged , , ,

What: Survey results from my class of 6-7 year olds. Their response to using our class blog.

Why: I wanted to gather data to see what percentage of the class actively interacted with the class blog and how often. I also wanted to see what I could do better as an educator through the blog.

How: Students were given the survey in class. I read out the questions and helped them through it so they understood.

Results:

Feeling Statements 1-3:

Question 6:

Question 7:

  • “I didn’t like……”

The students said:

Question 8:

  • “Circle the number that shows how you feel about the class blog.” (1=bad, 2=ok, 3=good, 4=great, 5=awesome)

5% rated it as a 4. 95% rated it as a 5.

Summary:

  1. I am convinced the majority of students enjoyed the blog and used it often.
  2. Many enjoyed the Maths games/links more than the Reading games/links.
  3. Mathletics was the favourite activity connected to the blog.
  4. In the future I will publish more of the students art on the blog and include links to other class blog sites.
