Revision of learning materials is needed to better suit students with different ages. 4. The most favored events are the welcome party, field trip, and annual party. 5. Schools should design the courses based on the age of night school students in order to bring in more students. 6. Night school students are satisfied with the opportunity to make new friends in classes but are not satisfied with the learning environment. 7.
