Survey of AFEC-X 2012 students
录音中...
Hellooo everyone, how are you guys doing !
Seven years ago, you met and stayed together for 6 weeks in Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) because of the "Advanced Fieldcourse in Ecology and Conservation, XTBG". That was an unforgettable experience, I hope! And I also hope AFEC-X 2012 was a good start for your career in ecology and conservation sciences because that was why XTBG started this annual international training program.
How time flies! Now AFEC-X has entered its second decade. Its time to look back, to say "Hi" to eveyone, to see what and how are you doing, and to get your opinions to make AFEC-X better in future together.
We prepared 29 questions to talk with you, these question covers "Your current career status", "The usefulness of AFEC-X to you and your suggestions", "Your communication with your AFEC-X fellows and instructors", and "What AFEC-X can learn from other comprehensive long-period course".
Please spend some time on this communication between you and XTBG, and please make sure your answers are from your heart.
We will remove all of your personal information before doing analysis or share the results.
Yours Sincerely!
