The Research Project
Project Tomorrow’s Speak Up surveys are available for K-12 students, families, teachers, and administrators. Our surveys go beyond merely gathering information about your activities. They are designed to help district leaders gain deep insights into the actions, aspirations, and attitudes of their stakeholders.
For the 2024-25 school year, Speak Up provides three distinct opportunities to provide the data necessary for better decisions and improved learning.
Classic Speak Up
Our legacy survey asks K-12 students, families, educators, and administrators about learning across various themes related to the role of technology in education. Project Tomorrow provides participating districts with their survey results at no cost. Aggregated national data from Speak Up informs a range of federal and state policies and discussions on education trends.
Speak Up Snapshots
Based on input from the Speak Up community, each of these surveys focuses on one key challenge that districts are facing. The surveys will provide districts with local, firsthand information from their stakeholders—the students, teachers, parents, and administrators in the district. Districts receive their local data within 30 days of completing the snapshot survey to enable meaningful change during the school year.
National Speak Up
We are offering three audience-specific surveys:
K-12 Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and Assistive Technology (winter)
focuses on how K-12 school districts are implementing inclusive practices to support diverse learners.
K-12 Cybersecurity Awareness and Preparation (winter-spring)
focused on understanding how K-12 school districts are responding to cybersecurity risks and threats.
K-12 School-to-Home Engagement (spring)
designed for communications leaders working at the school district level.
