DCU is developing a glossary for STEM terms in Irish Sign Language. This project is called the “Irish Sign Language STEM Glossary”. The principal investigator is Dr Elizabeth Mathews (elizabeth.mathews@dcu.ie or 01-8842247). This research is funded by Science Foundation Ireland. We are evaluating our glossary by trying to find out if it is needed, what people think of it, and how we can make it better.
If you would like to leave your feedback on the glossary, you can use this online survey. Your responses will be collected for a report on our glossary. We might also publish some academic articles and conference papers and give public presentations with this information. There are no risks to taking part in this study.
We do not want to collect any of your personal data. Please do not type your name or email addresses.
You do not have to take part in this research. You can continue to use the glossary without filling in this feedback form.
