Teen Tangent has two surveys seeking youth
participants:
Alana Garton (North Sydney Girls High) is
undertaking a survey of accelerated students for the Society & Culture
Personal Interest Project, a component of the HSC. The survey is aimed at
comparing the self esteem of male and female accelerants. The survey contains
102 statements that the participant must rate by inserting an 'X' into the
appropriate box. Participants must be in grade 5 or above and have been
accelerated by one or more years above their chronological age. Accelerated
homeschoolers can also participate for added information. Information from the
surveys remains anonymous with the results presented in collated form. The
survey is in the form of an Excel spreadsheet document and can be downloaded
from the url
Macquarie Uni is also running some web surveys on
young people's attitudes toward science, engineering & technology. More info
is in the research section of Teen Tangent News & Links

Teen Tangent recently got to the semi-finals of the
Microsoft Imagine Cup. The theme for 2005 was 'breaking down barriers'. I take
this occasion to congratulate Brenton Fletcher (15), Digital Dimensions editor
and site designer/developer for his entry as well as the individual
contributors to Teen Tangent. The competition submission is found on the 'About
Teen Tangent' page:
More of Brenton's work can be found at his site or
the Williams Music Methodology web site.
