Educator Participation on Science Fair Committees - Alumni Survey
The purpose of this survey is to obtain primary data for a study aiming to understand educator participation on science fair committees and to improve educator participation specifically within the Greater Vancouver Regional Science Fair (GVRSF) committee.

This study is led by a UBC undergraduate student and GVRSF committee member engaged in a technical writing project. Data collected from this survey may be used in a formal report addressed to the GVRSF committee. The formal report ultimately serves to provide recommendations on enhancing educator participation in the GVRSF committee.

This survey should take around 5 minutes to complete. Responses are voluntary and anonymous. If you have any comments or questions about this study, please feel free to contact Janice Pang at janice@gvrsf.ca.

Thank you for taking the time to participate in this survey.
