Educational Perspectives: A Survey of 10,000 Ontario Students, Teachers, and Parents.
Adams, Michael; And Others
This paper offers an overview of three previous studies based on surveys of almost 1000 Ontario parents, 3500 teachers, and over 6100 students; each of which monitors the participants' experience with and attitudes towards the system of education. The intention of the overview is to assimilate the findings of the previous research into a single volume that compares and contrasts the views of the key participants in the educational process. This attitudinal information should assist planners in their efforts to assess alternatives and to assign priorities. More specifically, it should provide the Ontario Ministry of Education with some guidance on such pressing educational issues as: (1) What should be the goals of education What values do we wish to impart to society's future citizens?; (2) What should be taught? What should be the content and curriculum of a quality education?; (3) How should that curriculum be taught? What are the optimum teaching methods? How effective are technological teaching aids?; (4) What are the appropriate decision-making roles of the various participants? What should be the rights and responsibilities of parents, teachers, students, trustees, administrators, and the general public? and (5) What innovations should be instituted to foster quality education?
