1) It's reasonable to only want feedback from a limited category of people. However, it's polite to tell other people which category that is. If you mostly only want answers from people currently or very recently attending classes (whether as students or teachers), the top of the survey should say that.

2) I don't spend time in classrooms. Both my children do, and I'm strongly interested in what technologies will be used to teach them. However, more than half your questions are phrased in ways I can't honestly answer.

I could, I suppose, point my kids at the survey. The older one is interested in ebooks and might have useful feedback for you; the younger would be limited to demographic data.
