How to Get involved
//**Its Simple!**// Book a computer room for your classes of 11 - 14 year olds and bring some equipment to measure with. Ask them to the 'Survey_2011'  page. That will take them to an embedded google form in which they will be asked a number of questions about themselves (teachers feel free to check in advance, all responses are anonymous). Some of the questions will involve taking measurements! They should click submit (only once please) when they are sure they are finished.

The Survey
Our view is that this survey can be done year after year and that it should evolve with the times. As a result we have created the ' Survey_2011 ' page. If you join the wikispace then you can leave us comments on the discussion tab of that page to make suggestions for next years survey. More guidelines on this are given on the page itself.
