i got this from Bud Hunt's blog.
Christian Paolino, who's currently enrolled in the graduate program in Media Studies at the New School University in New York, is conducting a survey on blogging in schools:
"My topic is about teen-agers, blogging, and the degree to which it affects their ability to write. I need high school teachers (and undergraduate if applicable) to answer a short survey gathering their observations on this subject. Unfortunately I only have about a week to gather the data, so I am asking you to please consider doing so at your earliest convenience and also contact any other such teachers you may know and ask them to complete the survey. It would be very much appreciated as my efforts to contact teachers have not been very successful thus far, and the ones I have heard from were not particularly versed in blogging technology. Please send this to others you know who might be able to help. If you have suggestions for reaching a number of teachers quickly, they would also be very much appreciated. If you are interested in learning more about this project, please let me know."
if you can spare the time, and if you fit Christian's criteria, please do help him with his survey :-)
