About me ...

Hi, my name is Katie Pryor and I am currently in year 12,  studying Society and Culture for my HSC.  For Society and culture we need to complete a Personal Interest Project (PIP) and the topic I have chosen for my PIP is whether education is advancing fast enough.  Technology is advancing very fast but is education advancing with it? Are students of today really learning what they need to be learning for their 21st century lives? These are the questions I am trying to answer. So if you could do me the large favour of completing my survey I would much appreciate it, as it would be a huge help in completing my PIP. Thank you for your help.

Please note that this survey is deliberately anonymous.  I'm interested in knowing what a range of people think to help me in my major project for this year and will not have any way of identifying individual responses.
