Thomas Andre Iowa State University Original Message WANTED: IOWA BIRDERS PLEASE CONSIDER VOLUNTEERING TO PARTICIPATE IN A STUDY OF BIRDWATCHING HOBBYISTS. We are seeking participants for an NSF supported study of individuals with science related hobbies. Science related hobbies like birding are an important form of informal science education and contribute to overall science literacy. The study is intended to learn about how and why people involve themselves in such hobbies. Participation is voluntary, and any information shared will be recorded anonymously. No names will be associated with interviews. To Volunteer If you are interested in volunteering, please go to this website http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/LGWKW7M You will receive a more complete description of the study and will be asked to provide your contact information (name, address, phone and email). A researcher from the study will contact you and schedule a mutually convenient time for an interview. We anticipate that an interview will take 30-45 minutes. Only about 30 people in Iowa will be selected. Compensation Individuals participating in interviews will receive a $10 gift card (Target) as a thank you for contributing to this research. --- Please contribute your sightings to our list; it is only as good as members make it! --- Birding channel recommendation for FRS/GMRS radio use: Primary selection; channel 5/0 , alternate selection; channel 6/0 --- This mailing list is sponsored by the Iowa Ornithologists' Union.
