Child Development Student Textbook Survey Spring 2015
Prepared by Lisa DiDonato, Educational Research Assessment Analyst, Title V Grant, Research and Institutional
Effectiveness
This report contains the results of an end of the term survey, conducted Spring 2015. The Child Development students were asked to complete a brief survey about their experience with borrowing books from the Child Development department for their Child Development classes. 149 students responded and their responses were anonymous . Due to the small number of students participating in this event, the results of this survey do not represent the opinions of all MT. SAC students. This report is only possible because of the insight and assistance provided by IT, Lisa Rodriguez, and the Child Development Staff. When you are referring to the data from this report, please remember to acknowledge that it was done through the Research and Institutional Effectiveness office in collaboration with the aforementioned persons and that it was completed on 7/20/2015.
