TA Wellness Study – UBC – Request for Focus Group Participation

Standard

Dear Teaching Assistants,

My name is Nicole Malette, and I am a Research Assistant for The University of British Columbia’s (UBC) Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology. You are being asked to take part in a study about TA Wellness because you are or have been a Teaching Assistant (TA) for UBC. We want to survey TAs to learn more about the types of support they are receiving pertaining to their wellness, and the TA experiences they find most stressful. If you would like to participate in a focus group with other UBC TAs (1.5 hours maximum), please indicate your availability in the following link or by contacting Nicole Malette (n.malette@alumni.ubc.ca).

Thank you!

Sign up for Focus Groups here: https://ubc.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9BIroLXmtN4tEj3
