Hi All! We are getting ready to close this survey in the next few days so this is your last chance to share your experiences with us!
We are conducting a study on museum educators' sense of belonging and how it influences job satisfaction.
For this study, we are asking folks in paid museum education positions over the age of 18 to participate. This may include titles such as docent, interpreter, facilitator, or other front-line staff engaged in activities related to learning in museums. This does not include unpaid or volunteer opportunities. Our definition of museums includes art museums, history museums, science museums, natural history museums, cultural museums, children's museums, zoos, aquariums, and even more specific categories, like hall of fame or aviation museums.
Folks who complete the entire survey will have an opportunity to qualify for one of ten $25 gift cards.
One challenge we are finding in our research, is that it is difficult to reach early career educators who may not be part of this listserv. If you supervise educators at your museum, would you please share this survey with them so we can reach folks from all career stages? Additionally, if you have received this survey, please feel free to share it with your colleagues at other institutions.
You can click here to access the survey. Or copy and paste this link into your browser: https://ufl.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_71YZrY3gTYLhRFc
The survey will take about 15 minutes, so please give yourself plenty of time to take it. Additionally, at the end of the survey you will have the opportunity to volunteer to be interviewed about your experiences.
If you have any questions, you can reach out to me at megan.ennes@ufl.edu.
Thank you for your time and helping us to better understand the museum education community.
