[Kahl, Chad]

please pardon cross-posting

Hello Colleagues,

A group of Illinois State University librarians is researching the learning styles of academic librarians. The purpose of this study is to determine what, if any, patterns exist within this group using the Felder-Silverman Index of Learning Styles instrument.

You are invited to complete a brief, voluntary, and anonymous questionnaire that will gather professional demographic data and to take the Index of Learning Styles. It will take approximately 15-20 minutes to finish. You may withdraw at any time. At the end, you will receive your learning style results and information about those results.

Questionnaire is available at http://www.mlb.ilstu.edu/learning/consent.html

The survey will be available until May 13, 2013.

This study protocol was approved by the Illinois State University Institutional Review Board (IRB).
