Student Instructions:

Congratulations again on taking part in a NASA educational activity! To improve this program for the future, all students who participate in this activity are being asked to complete a survey. There are no “right” or “wrong” answers to any of the questions. We want your honest answers. It should take no more than 15 minutes to complete the questions. NASA and its research team will make sure that only they will see your answers to this and future surveys for this activity. No report will use your name or describe you in any way that anyone could tell that it is you.

We also want your help to tell us how long it takes to complete this survey. So, please make note of the time that you start this survey because we will ask at the end how long it took you to complete this survey.
