“Do you have any plans for the weekend?†your friend asks. “Oh, just lots of homework,†you reply, with a laugh. STEM students have a bit of a reputation for always having massive quantities of homework and assignments to complete.
If you are one of those students, please consider taking a couple of minutes to complete this brief (< 5 minute) survey regarding your study habits and motivation.
The survey is a part of a project for MATH 240 and will serve to inquire into such questions as: “Do engineers spend more time studying than science majors?â€, “How does the desire to attend graduate school affect the motivation of STEM students to maintain a higher GPA?†and “Is there a direct correlation between hours spent in class and hours required to complete homework for STEM majors?â€
Thank you in advance for your participation!
