<p class="MsoNormal">Hello SORA members!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Heather McCabe and I are teaching a class next month on survey design for some of our agency employees. We will be asking our students to create brief surveys (using the principles of social science and good survey design!), build the
surveys in Qualtrics, and test them out.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>We need some participants who would be willing to take these surveys and provide feedback to our students.</b> The surveys will all be on imaginary topics like “customer satisfaction with the new Pawnee zoo exhibit” and “environmentally
healthy habits of the residents of Hawkins, Indiana.” We just need some folks to answer the brief set of survey questions and provide a comment or two on the design of the survey. We will be sending out the surveys via e-mail, so this can all be done within
the comfort of your very own cubicle.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The class is taking place on March 14<sup>th</sup>, and the surveys will most likely go out sometime between 1 and 3pm. If you might be interested and available as a survey taker, send an e-mail directly to
<a href="mailto:tasha.l.chapman@oregon.gov?subject=Call%20for%20Survey%20Participants">
myself</a> or <a href="mailto:heather.k.mccabe@oregon.gov?subject=Call%20for%20Survey%20Participants">
Heather McCabe</a> for more details.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(Please do not hit REPLY ALL to this e-mail, as you may incur the wrath of countless data nerds.)<o:p></o:p></p>
