UA I-Corps Research Project–Law Students Needed!

The University of Akron I-Corps program is asking current UA law students for help with a research project on law school note-taking and study habits. The researchers are asking students to participate in a brief one-on-one interview where you will be asked just a few open-ended questions. The data collected will be used to solve problems faced by today’s law students.

Please note: Participants are free to choose what information to provide. Identities will be kept confidential, and no personal information will be shared.

These interviews will be scheduled on Friday mornings during the month of March between the hours of 10:00 AM and 12 Noon. If you are interested, you can email the researchers directly at: research@GavelNote.comInterviews will be in the lounge/study area in Central Hower.

To make the process easier, there is an online signup form where you can register for a specific interview time slot on Friday mornings during the month of March. Students can access the signup form directly at: University of Akron Law Student Survey Sign-Up FormFor questions, please contact 3L Rachael Aufdenkampe.
