Return to The Office

Could you spare a minute to help me?

I want to learn about the potential audience for this method of online instruction. The Office is still a prototype, its content is for an older audience, and its instructional goal is to teach basic skills. But for the purpose of these questions think about the general form of this program in the context of what you teach. This is not a marketing survey and you need not identify yourself. I hope to report out findings at this yearŐs National Reading Conference in a paper entitled A Year of Living Dangerously: The Perils and Promise of Publishing Online Literacy Instruction. Your time is valuable and for the first 1000 respondents I will contribute $1.00 to one of the organizations that you select. To keep it manageable I selected four diverse groups as candidates for contribution.

1. Did you try the program?

yes no

2 How likely are you to use a program like this with your students?

very unlikely unlikely no opinion likely very likely

Why would you use, or not use the program? Have you used other internet resources in your teaching?

3. What aspects of this type of program are attractive to you?

4. What aspects would you change to make it more useful to you?

5. Would you (i.e., your school, business, etc.) pay $1.00 for each student to use this program. For this amount, the student could have as many sessions as needed to complete the simulation.

Yes No

Comments?

6. What is your primary responsibility?

Adult Basic Ed. K-6 Classroom

High school or vocational school University

7. What is your name and where are you from? (optional)
