Happy Tuesday! I received this email and thought some of you might like to be involved in this research. :)
"As part of my PhD I am exploring the impact of the pandemic on students, both non-disabled and disabled and/or neurodivergent, studying at University at this time, and would love to know what these experiences have been like during these educational changes accompanying the COVID-19 pandemic.
I am currently looking for students willing to participate in a 15-25 minute questionnaire, both now and in 3 months’ time, exploring their experiences. There is a chance to win a £50 Voucher for completing both times. If anyone has any questions please do feel free to email me: [email protected]
The link to the questionnaire for disabled and neurodivergent students/ students with difficulties can be found here: https://coventryhls.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eCWslOGrdpjW7oG
And the link for non-disabled and neurotypical students can be found here: https://coventryhls.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bw5kRTW3EJf8s8C

Hello guys! Hope you enjoyed the festivities over Christmas and New Year. If you get chance please can you fill in this form (trying to make some big changes and positive impact to the learning contracts to better suit students!).

Thank you!

I am collecting feedback from students on learning contracts specifically - assessments and exams. I would appreciate it if you could fill this out so I can share your experiences with the Disabled head in a couple of weeks! Thank you.

All students with a learning contract are being contacted by Disabled Student Support to let them know of the support available to them: extra support has been implemented as result of COVID-19. This email includes a graphic I made to help visualize the support.

Myself and the Sheffield Hallam Students'​ Union Officers have been in talks with the University to try to ensure all disabled students are getting the support you need in the pandemic.

I really hope this news offers comfort and support to everyone, but I understand how challenging things are and have been for many! Any feedback or comments please don't hesitate to get in touch with myself or the SU Officers!
