Subject: Seeking students for a higher-ed study

 

Conifer Research is doing a research study to better understand the academic
experiences of blind and visually-impaired college students. Through this
6-week-long study, we are seeking to learn how students prepare for the
semester, collaborate with their peers, use media and resources, make
progress and overcome challenges. 

 

If you are in college or about to start this semester in the Chicagoland or
New York, New Jersey, Connecticut metropolitan area, please consider joining
our study!

We will do our best to make this an interesting and rewarding experience for
all involved. And by better understanding your college experiences, we will
be able to create something that serves you and your peers better. 

 

Who is a great fit for the study?

We are looking for a variety of students: College Freshmen, Sophomores,
Juniors and Graduate students at both 2- and 4-year public and private
institutions. We are looking for students from across all the majors as well
as those taking developmental courses (courses to help students catch up to
college level classes). We are looking for students in the Chicagoland and
New York Metropolitan areas.

 

What does the study involve?

The study has been designed to allow busy students to share their
experiences with us at their own pace and in their own words. At the start
of the semester, we would like to meet with you to get to know each other
and see some of the places and resources you will use on campus (this
interview pays $100). Then over the next 6 weeks, will will ask you to
complete 3 activities (such as: leaving us voice-mail messages that reflect
your studies, recording a study session) and one more in-person interview.
Depending on how many parts of the study you complete, you can be paid up to
$550. You are be free to withdraw from the study at any time and for any
reason and be compensated accordingly.

 

Who will you be speaking to?

Megan, Marta and Ksenia from Conifer Research, an ethnographic research
company that helps create new services to improve people's everyday lives
(website: http://www.coniferresearch.com/).
