参考回答(每个问题两个回答)
1. What kinds of organization want to find out about people’s opinions?
Well, I guess a lot of organizations would do, especially those non-governmental enterprises. I believe they would pay more attention to what their customers and staffs think, because their choices and decisions directly affect the survival and demise of the company.
It’s hard to say what kinds of organization care to find out about people’s opinions, but I do know what kinds of organization don’t care: the governmental organizations at various levels of an authoritarian regime, because they don’t care about what you think, they only demand blind submission.
2. Do you think that questionnaires or surveys are good ways of finding out people’s opinions?
Yes, I do think so, because the cost of doing questionnaires or surveys is very low and they are easy to operate. The surveyors are easy to train. Samples can be easily collected. What else could you ask when you have cheap source of data and easy-to-operate scheme? So I’m totally for questionnaires or surveys.
No, I don’t think data collected through questionnaires or surveys can truly reflect people’s thinking. Look, would you happily give out what you think when people solicit information by bugging you. So I never trust questionnaires or surveys.
3. What reasons might people have for not wanting to give their opinions?
Well, I don’t know about others. But I always use“busy”or“I’m occupied at the moment”as excuses to slip off. I guess there must be a lot of others like me.
I guess some people would feel reluctant if asked to give their personal information or asked to give opinions on sensitive issues. Of course nobody wants any trouble.
4. Do you think it would be a good idea for schools to ask students their opinions about lessons?
I’m sorry. I just have no idea about this, because this topic itself has been disputed by a lot of experts and educationists. So far no consensus has been made. Some of their ideas even contradict each other. So I don’t really know.
Well, yes and no. Asking students their opinions is a great leap forward toward education reformation. But it has both advantages and disadvantages, all of which have to be thought through and carefully measured before any major steps are taken.
5. What would the advantages for schools be if they asked students their opinions?
One of the major advantages is that schools can customize their courses according to students’ needs that students can freely select teachers and textbooks. By doing so, it is believed that students will be more active or motivated to engage themselves in learning.
The most obvious advantage is that schools can get not only first-hand but also timely feedback from students about the education service they provide and therefore will be able to make adjustment to better meet students’ needs. Apart from this, there must be many other advantages, but this is the most obvious one I can think of now at this moment.
6. Would there be any disadvantages in asking students’ opinions?
Well, once schools start asking students’ opinions, all kinds of ideas will start to pour in, realistic and unrealistic, constructive and unconstructive, even destructive. It’ll only make schools look bad if schools don’t make any response to students’ suggestions. But what can you do if all that students ask is less work, more play. I mean, children are just not old, mature enough to get involved in this. If schools want to reform, they should rely on their own experiences and wisdom.
What disadvantages could there possibly be? I don’t believe there are any disadvantages. We should regularly consult students’ opinions on how we should do better about education. After all, we as“cook”should“cater to”the taste of our guests, in this case, our students.
