Reminder to Complete Research Survey
Are you responsible for, or coordinate, a Unit or Course of Study which includes introductory/foundation level nervous system content, at an Australian university? We are Australian academics conducting a study to ascertain what nervous system concepts are being taught and whether these concepts align with international curriculum guidelines. This information could be used by the academic community to inform the teaching of nervous system content.
We are inviting individuals who are responsible for teaching introductory/foundation level (e.g. first year) nervous system content, or who are coordinating the teaching of this content, at an Australian university to participate in the study. The nervous system content can occur within a neuroscience or other (e.g. physiology, anatomy) course or unit of study. If you have not completed the survey please consider assisting our research by completing the survey now.
Participation involves completion of a 20-30 minutes (depending on the amount of nervous system included in your course) anonymous online survey. This project has been approved by the University of South Australia’s Human Research Ethics Committee (Ethics Protocol 205746). The survey can be accessed https://redcap.link/nervous.system.content.in.tertiary.teaching. After completing the survey, you can enter a draw to win one of six $50 Westfield or JB Hi-Fi gift vouchers.
Many thanks to those teachers who have already completed the survey. As the survey is designed to be anonymous, you may be getting this reminder although you have completed the survey, as we cannot identify people who have completed it already. In that case, you have our grateful thanks and please disregard this reminder.
