The purpose of this questionnaire is to measure your level of engagement and satisfaction with your university. This questionnaire is a part of my Masters of Education thesis, in which I am studying students’ engagement and satisfaction with the university. Findings from the study will help in understanding students’ experiences, which may lead to improved student services. By completing the questionnaire, you will be providing information about your experiences, which will then be a part of these findings.
One student participant will be selected randomly to win a $50 iTunes gift card.
Please select the response that best applies to you for each question. It will take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete the questionnaire. You must be at least 18 years of age to complete this questionnaire. Please do not complete this questionnaire more than once.
I do not foresee any risks or discomfort from your participation in this research. The decision to not participate or stop participating will not affect the your relationship with York University, now or in the future. You can refuse to answer any or all of the questions in the questionnaire. If you withdraw from the research study, all data collected will be destroyed wherever possible. All responses and information will be kept confidential to the fullest extent of the law. The questionnaires are not labelled in any way that identifies you. Email information collected for the gift card draw will be in a separate list, and not connected to questionnaire responses in any way. Questionnaire data will be stored on my personal computer, and will be confidentially destroyed within five years. I will retain the data files (e.g., SPSS) in a secure location. I may present the findings in papers and/or publications presented in classes at York and in other research contexts.
