Call for Participants: Survey on the Experience of Industry Expert Adjuncts (IEA)

[Dan Wong]

We are currently working on a research project with colleagues from Clemson University. We are specifically interested in looking at the experience of Industry Expert Adjuncts (IEA) including their reasons for teaching, the type of teaching support they receive, as well as how the pandemic has impacted their teaching experience. We define IEA’s as an adjunct faculty member who, in addition to teaching, works full time in the industry they teach in. 

Thank you so much for helping us distribute our survey. We will be sure to share our outcomes when we complete the research. We have included a message you can send directly to your IEAs to save time.

For IEAs

Hello,

You are receiving this message because you have been identified as an Industry Expert Adjunct (IEA). We define IEA’s as an adjunct faculty member who, in addition to teaching, works full time in the industry in which they teach. A group of researchers from Clemson University and Temple University are exploring topics centered around IEA’s and would really appreciate your help. 

Below you will find a link to a survey that shouldn’t take more than 10 minutes to complete. It covers a variety of topics including your motivation for teaching, the type of teaching support you receive, as well as how the pandemic has impacted your teaching experience.
