I have had a few very good formal teachers in my academic career, and my most favorite teacher was my grandfather. Born in 1889 in a tiny cabin in the northern woods of Minnesota (mid/northern USA), as the 4th of 7 children, he managed to get through the 3rd grade in their local 1 room schoolhouse before he had to get to work. By the time I came along, he was well into Parkinson's, was mostly deaf, and still had a commanding presence that captured my attention. Because he needed assistance with just about everything he did, as a little kid, I learned to listen carefully and see what he saw that needed to be done. He could gesture slightly toward an ax, saw, and pile of logs; indicate with his hands how long the pieces needed to be & I went to work. If I was stacking the wood poorly, he'd hobble over and show me how to do it. Even at 52 lbs/24 kg I was determined to swing the ax well. Crazy dangerous! but grandpa had confidence in me - so I did too. The lessons in confidence build
This is Jackie, one of 3 previously wounded feral cats currently living with me. She is happy, cuddly (on her terms) and inquisitive! When I cat-napped her, she had already had a tragic litter of kittens and needed help with a bad eye. She was quite feral, so I thought she might choose to return to the wild after being spayed and having her eye removed... but she hid deeply in my basement for a couple of months - even when I gave her the option of returning to the outdoors, she chose to stay in. It took about a year for her to convert to trust me enough not to bite when she let me pet her. Now she is a big cuddle-monster.
Oops - I meant almost a year.
No answer to this in over a year? :-/
First - it is assumed that the paper surveys have already been transcribed to a spreadsheet. I have a hunch that this hasn't happened yet. So - unless you used a paper form that is extremely well formatted and the responses very very rigidly marked down, the only way to get them into a spreadsheet is to transcribe the contents anyway. You might as well enter them into the survey as it is.
