description: Survey on the Effectiveness of Information-Digital Environment in General Secondary Education from Parents' Perspective

Dataset Overview

This dataset contains survey responses from parents of students in general secondary education institutions in Ukraine regarding the effectiveness of information and digital environments in schools. The survey was conducted from October 7 to October 18, 2024, during the period of the ongoing war in Ukraine, which affects the educational process and creates specific challenges for schools.

The survey collected responses from 5,224 parents from 21 regions of Ukraine and the city of Kyiv. The questionnaire aimed to understand how parents interact with digital platforms used by schools, their assessment of children's digital skills, and their suggestions for improving digital educational environments.

Data Collection Methodology

The survey was conducted as part of research project № 0123U100497 "Methodology of monitoring research on the effectiveness of information and digital environment of general secondary education institutions in the context of Ukraine's European integration" by the Institute for Digitalisation of Education of the National Academy of Educational Sciences of Ukraine.

Data was collected through an online survey created with Google Forms. The survey link was distributed through Telegram groups of teachers from different regions of Ukraine who participate in educational projects of the NGO "Agency for Educational Policy Development." Participation was voluntary and anonymous.

The sample is non-representative. The survey was conducted during wartime conditions, with schools operating in various formats (in-person, distance learning, or mixed format) depending on the security situation in different regions.
