Online Student Writing Survey
Welcome to the Online Student Writing Survey. This survey involves questions about the kinds of writing you do in your online class. You will answer a series of questions on the computer using an online survey tool. Participation in the survey will take about 10-15 minutes. You may save your responses and continue at a later time if you choose.
This Online Student Writing Survey is part of a research study conducted by Lynn Wilson, a Ph.D. Candidate in the College of Education, and it is supervised by Dr. Ron Lunsford, a professor in the Department of English. The survey has been approved by the Institutional Review Board at University of North Carolina at Charlotte. No deception is involved, and the study involves no more than minimal risk to participants (i.e., the level of risk encountered in daily life). Participants should be aware that the survey is not run from a secure https server, so there is a small possibility that responses could be viewed by unauthorized third parties.
You have been provided with the link to this survey because you completed an Online Informed Consent form agreeing to participate in the study. Your participation in the research study and in the survey is voluntary. Your responses to the survey will be kept confidential. You will not be identified by your actual name in the data collected or in the written report.
The instructor will not be informed of your responses or whether you respond to the survey. Your responses to the survey will not impact your final grade in the course in any way.
