They answered questions regarding how they felt about the school, teachers, changes that should be made, present data about themselves, jobs, friends, family, and communication problems. This research includes several separate studies and the computer-generated statistics formulated from the raw data. Also included are published articles about other research, used as a literature review to add substance to the school's own findings.
