TOPIC: Teaching English Listening Comprehension to Kindergarten Children from Non-English Linguistic Backgrounds in an English–Vietnamese Bilingual Setting
Good survey question:
At the age of 3–4, kindergarten children can develop English listening comprehension effectively through age-appropriate activities such as songs, games, and daily classroom routines in a bilingual setting, even without the teacher instructions and explanations.
○ Strongly Disagree
○ Disagree
○ Neither Agree nor Disagree
○ Agree
○ Strongly Agree
-> This is a good question because it clarifies the context and is age-specific. It measures teachers’ perceptions rather than absolute facts, and focuses on a single construct (listening development through age-appropriate activities).
Bad survey question:
Do you think students at that age (3–4 years old) are able to learn about alliteration and rhyming words?
○ Strongly Disagree
○ Disagree
○ Neither Agree nor Disagree
○ Agree
○ Strongly Agree
-> This is not considered a good survey question because it addresses more than one aspect at the same time and does not follow basic survey design principles, which may cause misunderstanding for respondents.
