More about the World's Shortest Education Survey

The Survey uses your answers to decide which of four categories best agrees with your opinion about who should control education, and then even suggests web sites to give you helpful information. Here are direct links to those categories:

Category 1Support the government schools with more resources
Category 2Reform the schools with better methods, standards, or content
Category 3Restructure the whole system with tax-funded school vouchers or tax credits
Category 4Free the schools from government involvement

Note: Rasmussen Research conducted a survey that reflected the five questions above. To see the results of that survey, click here.
