Eureka! survey

We will be surveying our Eureka! community over the next few weeks to garner useful information which will help us with the development of the Eureka! Programme for the next few years.

Keep an eye out for an email from convenor@eureka.org.nz which will contain a link to the survey. We are particularly interested in gaining some insights into what it is that motivates schools, teachers and students to participate in the Eureka! Programme and our various awards.

We have big plans developing for the expansion of Junior Eureka! into more primary and intermediate schools - especially after we read a report from the Education Review Office which estimated only 25% of students are receiving effective science education.  The report was written in 2012 but it appears that not much has changed in the last 5 years.

The Eureka! Trust wants to do something about that and we need information to help us decide what's the best approach.
