UW Technology survey– your feedback influences how UW spends your money

UW Learning & Scholarly Technologies (LST) is conducting a survey of how and where students use technology to do their work as students as well as what students envision for the future. Your answers to this survey will help LST improve and expand technology spaces and services for students. Please share this email with the students in your department. The survey is for UW students only.

The survey will take about 10 minutes to complete. Participation in this survey is voluntary, and answers are confidential. At the end of the survey, students will have the opportunity to complete a separate entry into our drawing for a chance to win one of ten $25 gift certificates to the University Bookstore. The drawing will be held and winners will be notified by December 4, 2009. Questions about this survey should be directed to Cara Lane at cgiacomi@uw.edu.

The survey is available online at https://catalysttools.washington.edu/webq/survey/lstuw/86988

More information about the survey can be found at http://www.uw.edu/lst.
