    Hello! Can you help my research team pass along an opportunity to high school students and families?

    We are from Delta Lab, an interdisciplinary research lab and design studio at Northwestern University. Our work is focused on studying high school students' motivation and perceptions on programming tools. We believe that insights gathered will be transformative in shaping how high school students perceive computer science, in turn producing more students who enjoy and go into programming fields.

    If you are currently teaching an introductory high school CS course, we would appreciate your help forwarding our study to your students. Please fill out this short form and we will email you with recruitment materials.  

    Your support in this regard would mean a lot to us, and we are committed to making the process as seamless as possible for both you and your students. We will keep in touch about the results of our study and are committed to sharing actionable recommendations based on our research with our research partners. 

    If any questions arise, please consult the FAQ on our website or feel free to ask me directly and I would be happy to help. We look forward to the possibility of working together in this research endeavor. 

    Thank you for your time and consideration,

    Delta Lab | Northwestern University
