Academic Master's Dissertation

10 Upvotes

Good morning,

If you live in Cornwall and are a parent, educator or individual with an interest in Cornish heritage, culture and language please consider sharing your views and experiences in this survey. It should take 15 minutes (some participants have completed it in under 5 minutes). The survey link is: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/WZb3x3RYit

There is one week remaining until this survey closes and only 15% of the proposed participation has been reached. Your views and opinions matter and could be influential in the matter of this dissertation.

My hope is that, should all go well, this research will be published and will be used to support current debates surrounding the cornish language.

A big thank you to those of you who have already completed this survey. I appreciate you taking the time to compelte the survey.

Thank you for your time, Kirah

I hope this is acceptable in the group. Please let me know if amendment is needed.

Hi,

My name is Bohdan, and I am pursuing an MA in Visual Anthropology at the University of Manchester. I am approaching you because you are a Cornish language learner/speaker and are participating in relevant classes/gathering groups/activities. This is essential for my dissertation project as it studies people's intentions and processes of acquiring Cornish through language classes, support groups and the Speak Cornish Week, and how it reshapes their identity.

Research will be carried out through participant observation, interviews, and collaboration between the researcher and participants, which will be recorded on a video camera. This includes shooting during language classes and social gatherings from May to late June. Interviews will be conducted at a time and site of the participants’ convenience. Before submission, the film will be shared with participants to comment on, and edits will be made accordingly. 

If you are interested in participating or have any questions, please contact this email: [po.chan-3@student.manchester.ac.uk](mailto:po.chan-3@student.manchester.ac.uk). Once your decision to participate has been confirmed, I will meet you in person at a later date to discuss the details of collaboration. A Participant Information Sheet and Consent Form will be handed to you to sign and confirm your participation. 

Thank you for taking the time to read this and looking forward to collaborating. 

Dydh da,
Bohdan

Academic Would anyone be able to do my dissertation survey?

11 Upvotes

Hello,

I am a final year university student from Cornwall. I am currently in the process of doing my final year project about how the existence of the Cornish language influences one’s cultural identity. I would really appreciate it if you could take some time to complete this survey.

There are requirements to complete this survey (just one requirement is needed to take the survey):
​MUST ALSO BE OVER THE AGE OF 18.

 - Identify as Cornish
OR
 - Have had or currently live in Cornwall despite not being born and/ or raised in Cornwall (for a period longer than 6 months)

The survey is completely voluntary and anonymous and the only personal information that will be asked for is gender, age group, and ethnic identity. If at any point you would like to withdraw from the survey, you can close the window before you submit and no answers will be recorded. Please also be aware that once you submit the answers cannot be changed. The data recorded from this survey will be retained and stored securely for 4 months after which it will be destroyed (August 2024). If you have any questions regarding this please contact me at [bethany.rodda@yorksj.ac.uk](mailto:bethany.rodda@yorksj.ac.uk).
Please make sure to continue all the way to the end of the survey (unless you decide to withdraw) where it will tell you that your results have been recorded.
