Are you a Wikibookian? Invitation to Online Interview

[Mike.lifeguard]

Always great to see genuine academic interest in Wikibooks. I'd
encourage you guys to participate in this if you haven't already so Amal
can get as much data as possible. The survey got quite a lot of
responses, and keeping the data set large for the interviews will be a
big help for this research.

I'm going to put a notice in the watchlist on English Wikibooks to
garner more attention.

Dear Wikibook Contributor,


Thank you for those who participated in the online questionnaire which aims to assess the motivation of Wikibooks' contributors.



I am pleased to advise that the analysis of the data from the completed online questionnaires has been finalized. The analysis provides some initial insights into the reasons Wikibookians
contribute to Wiki textbook projects. However, some of these results require further investigation to gain a better understanding of the motivation of Wikibooks' contributors.



Now, I would like to invite you to participate in the online interview. The interview will take from 30 to 45 minutes. This interview will be in the form of text chat.
Please read 'Research Information Sheet' @ http://easstudents.cw.unisa.edu.au/com/survey/Information_Sheet.pdf which provides more detailed information
about the research and interview. This research project has been approved by the University of South Australia's Human Research Ethics Committee.



Could you please reply to this email with the appropriate local time for you to meet with you online?
Date & Time: ----/----/2010 @---- AM or PM?
