Calling All Curious Minds!
We are looking for middle school students who are curious, enthusiastic, and ready to explore new educational tools. If your child is interested in participating, please fill out the form! Your involvement will contribute to advancing educational tools and methodologies. Study Overview:
Our research aims to explore how middle schoolers in the Greater Seattle area, aged 10 to 15, interact with physical choropleth maps. This study will help us understand the educational impact of these tools, focusing on students' ability to analyze data and their feedback on the tool's design and usability. Study Components:
- Workshop Session: A 15-20 minute session where participants engage with physical choropleth maps using acrylic slides, alongside peers.
- Individual Interviews: A 10-15 minute personal interview following the workshop to gather detailed insights.
If your child is curious and ready to explore new educational horizons, please don't hesitate to get involved. Fill out the form to participate and learn more about this unique opportunity!
