Students Needed

A group of researchers at UIC would like to understand students' motivation in school. If you are a student, we hope you will volunteer. Your answers will be confidential in that we will have no way to contact you directly. We plan to combine scores from hundreds of students to help researchers understand school's role in promoting motivation. We hope you will tell us what you think about these ideas.
