Dr Colin Hanbury at the University of Western Australia is conducting
an international on-line survey as part of research on why people
chose to study in science and science-related areas.
The survey is for anyone who completed tertiary science (and applied
science) studies after leaving school – the greater the diversity of
the respondents the better will be the results. You don't have to be
currently working in science-related areas. If you want your country
and discipline to be represented then please participate, and please
send your friends and colleagues in science-related areas the survey
link:
http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/409857/Science
All responses are anonymous and the individual responses will remain
confidential. Following statistical analysis the overall results will
be published during 2011. The report will be available as a PDF at
http://www.communicatingscience.org/
If you would like to know more, then please contact Dr Colin Hanbury
at colin.hanbury@uwa.edu.au (Phone +61 8 6488 2508), or Assoc. Prof.
Nancy Longnecker at nancy.longnecker@uwa.edu.au (Phone +61 8 6488
3926).
Important points for you to consider
· Most developed countries are witnessing falls in school
students opting for science subjects and for university science-based
courses; however, the trend is opposite in developing countries.
· It is important for our combined social and economic future
for people to be scientifically literate and for there to be
sufficient well-qualified people to take up science-based occupations.
· This survey will help us understand the issues related to
students' selecting of science at school, and will enable comparisons
across different cultures and countries.
Please answer the survey – it should take no longer than 15 minutes.
Dr Colin Hanbury
