Dear Respondent,
Please be informed that we are conducting a study on “Time and its
Relation To The Analytical Skills Of Stem 12 Students In Projectile Motion”.
In this connection, we have constructed a questionnaire to gather information for
our study.
Your earnest participation and sincere cooperation in the study by way of
answering questions truthfully is very vital, without it, the study will not be
complete as it should be.
Kindly answer the questions in the questionnaire passionately. Please feel
assured that your anonymity and the information you will give will be treated with
the strictest confidentiality.
Thank you very much for your kind response to this request!
