From rol5 at nau.edu Wed Jan 17 16:02:16 2018 From: rol5 at nau.edu (Roman Lesnov) Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2018 14:02:16 -0700 Subject: [Three Rivers TESOL discussion] research request Message-ID: Dear English Teacher! My name is Roman Lesnov and I?m a Ph.D. candidate in Applied Linguistics at Northern Arizona University, USA. I am humbly asking you to take a survey that I?ve created to help uncover some mysteries of the listening comprehension skill. This survey seeks your opinion on the role of visual information in the process of listening comprehension. 10 minutes of your time will help shape the future of L2 teaching and testing! And I will make sure to briefly inform you about the results. If you decide to participate, your name will be drawn into a raffle to win one of several 40$ awards (US dollars). To take the survey, please click on this link: *http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/4115985/Is-Seeing-a-Part-of-Academic-Listening-5 * Thank you for your time and input! -- Roman O.
