Membean Survey Feedback

In June, both SMCPS staff and students were surveyed by Membean. The results of those surveys are here.


  • Membean Teacher Survey data
  • Student Survey data


Use the Affinity Mapping discussion protocol to synthesize reactions to feedback.


  • What are your reactions to the Membean teacher survey data?

  • What are your reactions to the Membean student survey data?


Write one idea in response to each question on the designated sticky note.

Place them anywhere on the chart paper. Next, let's organize our ideas into categories.



  • Let’s discuss: how do these ideas fit together under one category? How do the categories relate to each other?
