Transcript: My Survey Questions Carreon, Robert. "Rio Grande Valley." Teach For America. Teach for America, n.d. Web. 23 Oct. 2013. I first sent my survey via g-mail on Oct. 15. and checked my responses on Oct. 17 However, since my surveys were only conducted on students who are in high school and living in the RGV, then there is no real comparison. considering the threats of internal and external validity, If only the participants of the survey would also range to college students who already experienced the effect of their parent's income and that are NOT living in the RGV to make a better comparison of the education here.

In this presentation, I'll survey my high school classmates to obtain a better understanding of if or not their parent's income may impact their future education. Money...it's also before education The Process Research Topic how old are you? gender? ethnicity? city where you live in? how did your grandparent's income affect your parent's education? How do you think the RGV's economy affect our education? What is your parent's annual income? How do you think your parent's income will affect your education? What have you heard about the education in Texas compared to other states? How are we any different than other regions? In my section of Types of Non experimental Research, I dealt with the topic of surveys. Surveys are a series of questions conducted to not change, but to describe a group of people. In this experiment, I conducted a survey to a certain group of people with questions of how their parent's income may affect their education. Discussion By: Jessica Cadena Works Cited According to Teach for America, the Rio Grande Valley is 13% lower that the rest on the states! As early as third grade, students in South Texas are are performing behind their peers across the states. I believe this has a lot to do with the student's parent's income. this research only responds the question on the opinion of the people. one limitation of this research is that it only focuses on the opinion rather that on FACTS one thing to change is to find statistics BASED on the opinion of people. based on the results of my research, I conclude that the government should provide the Rio Grande Valley with more money for schools and maybe give classes of moral values and educational goals. Research Expertise Methodology Part 1: Participants Importance n=15 age range=16-17 9 females and 6 males All of my participants live in the Rio Grande and they go to a public school; my participants are middle to high class, and they all live with their parents.
