A big thankyou to everyone who's completed my survey!

I'm fortunate some people have rather enjoyed filling it in because it makes me feel like I'm burdening you a little less! I know that it's not perfect, but like blue cross said, I'm learning. And I think it will still provide a lot of usable data, and being able to add in discussions about possible improvements and flaws certainly isn't a bad thing!

I realised about the enews thing a while ago and regret not adding it in, but I'd already had a fair few responses by then so was reluctant to make any changes.

Thanks again! Just that you did it is helpful, but all of your comments have been encouraging and helpful :)

Good on you Audrey... as my supervisor always said when something didn't quite work quite out as it 'should have'.

"Everything you do provides a research finding, write up the 'no-good bits' with the same enthusiasm as the bits that worked out as you expected them to".

Will you post your results here, like OLOs oberfuhrer does?

As an old shop steward.... I am sure I speak for all of us here (just ask Belly). Well, I'm going to anyway AlGoreisRich.

Research is vital, but it's no good without people knowing what it says.

If one signs up to OLOs research surveys, as I do, Mr. Graham Young always sends a follow up result, which makes it all the more interesting.

Also, it should be a part of part of your 'ethical clearance' process (Google that) to offer the findings to your participants.

A brief report would be much appreciated, and your intention to provide that could even be written into the exercise you are undertaking for school as a part of your 'process' section, and I am pretty sure that would be seen as a 'good thing' on your part by your examiner/marker.

Not a very extensive survey.Too many surveys like to elict responses that reflect the bias of those generating it.
