| dc.description.abstract | My research was conducted working on a research project aiming to learn more about climate distress, specifically on a day to day basis. The project consisted of a daily survey, in which participants would answer questions about their emotions and behaviours relating to climate change. I learned about all of the important steps taken in order to initiate a new research project. I was able to experience the many major, and minor, details that one must pay close attention to. I went through a trial run of the survey and shared my ideas and learned from others about pointers that often bring a survey to higher quality. Along with observing and talking to the team, my main role was to create a website for the survey. The website includes information on the study, eligibility, and how to join. With this I learned more about building a website in general, but more specifically one for a research project, with the audience being potential participants. I also was a part of the weekly meetings, in which I was also able to learn more about the different roles that each person of the team has, and how they work separately, but even more importantly, how they work together. | |
