We're taking our survey into our school, and we're going to survey a couple different classrooms.
We have been researching multitasking and how 8th graders do it, when they do it, how well they think they do it, and we created a survey, we don't want your name on this, so it's a blind survey.
The survey is voluntary; you don't have to take it.
♫♫ (Josie) Some of the things that we're going to ask the students on the survey is to rate themselves on a scale from 1 to 4 on how good they think they are at multitasking.
(Alejandra) Another question we asked was, while you're doing your homework, what are you doing at the same time?
Thank you for participating.
(Josie) They finished and collected them, and I think it went really well.
♫♫ Hi guys.
Today we're going to be giving you guys a survey about multitasking.
And multitasking is doing one or more things at the same time.
So just circle whichever ones you do while you're doing homework.
So now you guys can just fill out your surveys.
♫♫ (Alejandra) I think it was really fun to be in front of the class presenting to everyone.
It's even different than public speaking or presenting a project.
Yeah, 'cause we were actually teaching, telling the class what to do.
Now we can know what it feels like to be a teacher.
(Josie) We all just really want to thank you for taking the time out of your class to fill out these surveys.
And we really appreciate that!
