Our Results

After our programs, we conduct a survey of participants to measure their response to the program. The results are both informative and motivating.

Our students...

Found that learning a lot was a lot of fun:

  • 49% of students respondents reported learning "a lot" at MIT Splash 2008 --- while an additional 21% reported learning more than in a whole month of school!
  • 69% of respondents at MIT Splash 2008 reported following up on their class material after the program.
  • Over 66% of students became "more excited" or "much more excited" about a topic from one of their classes.
  • Meanwhile, at the University of Chicago's Cascade spring 2009 program, the overall rating students gave to their classes was a 9.1/10, a high rating shared by the students' overall excitement for class material, also a 9.1/10.

Our teachers...

Found that teaching was both exciting and helpful to them:

  • 100% of teacher respondents at Stanford Splash 2008 found teaching to be "fun" or "very fun."
  • 89% reported a greater interest in teaching for outreach programs.
  • 82% felt their teaching had improved from the experience.
