AMANDA HYNAN FINAL THESIS PDF

APPENDIX C – BRIEF INVITATION
An invitation to be involved in a Research Project
Hi, my name is Amanda Hynan. I am a PhD research student at Manchester
Metropolitan University.
My research project
Listening to Young People who use Augmentative and Alternative Communication:
Topics around using the Internet for Social Purposes
Please will you help me?
If you are aged 16-20 and use AAC, I would like to talk to you about whether you use
the internet and are interested in social networks (for example: facebook, twitter,
email)
If you would like to be interviewed you can choose where this will take place. The
interview will not be longer than two hours but this is only a guide and you will be
able to stop whenever you want to.
The questions will be around the following topics:
How you access the internet?
In what ways do you use the internet socially?
Other ways you might use the internet?
If you would like to take part, I will send you a more detailed leaflet with important
information to help you decide.
My project has been approved by a research committee that protects your rights,
safety and privacy.
