Hello fellow instructors,
Our research team has developed a survey to capture undergraduate science students’ ideas about failure in science and failure in learning science. We spent the last year developing survey items through work in the literature and collecting data from students with these items. Our next step is to conduct a large-scale data collection effort to examine the functioning of our survey. We hope that you may be able and willing to help us recruit students from your undergraduate science courses.
We could use your help to:
- Advertise our study to your students (we will provide a posting to include in your LMS).
- Offer incentive for participation (course credit or extra credit).
- Advertise our study to your colleagues teaching undergraduate science courses – please forward this message to follow instructors who might be interested!
If you are interested, please email: Emily.Holt@unco.edu
We can also direct you to our website with more information about this project.
We greatly appreciate your help, as this survey development could not happen without your support! If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out.
Sincerely,
Emily Holt, University of Northern Colorado
