Survey
of student mentor summer experience and school year expectations
Dear __________________,
In order to begin
assessing the NSF-AIRE mentoring program, we would like start
gathering input from participating students. This survey is
meant to offer an initial impression of how the summer training
went and of plans for the upcoming school year.
When you have completed
the survey, you can let me know that it is ready to be picked
up (or you can slip it under my office door if I'm not around).
If you would rather meet with me than fill this out, or if
you have any questions, just let me know.
Thank you!
