I am happy to report a 100% return rate by teachers on the staff interest inventory. I now know more than I have ever known about the rich background, varied talents, and diverse tastes of our teaching staff. I will be using this information to tailor our professional development experiences to our unique characteristics as a staff (like guqin music at our next faculty meeting).
Attached are some visual representations of what I've gleaned from the survey thus far: Why We Teach, How We Learn, Our Music, and Methodology Mastery. They can also be viewed at voyagerpcs.blogspot.com, for those of you who have gained access. :o) I hope you enjoy perusing the data as much as I did.
My next survey will be a Teacher Satisfaction Survey, which the Baldrige folks recommend we give every 6-8 weeks to gauge morale and adjust our processes when there is a need. I will report the results from this survey within a week of receiving your responses. Thanks for your kokua!
Enjoying the extended weekend,
Evan
p.s. Sue would like permission to share our individual answers to the question "why do you teach?" for a "Meet the Teachers" bulletin board. If you are willing to have your answer to that question shared with the larger Voyager community, please reply to this email with the word "yes".
