Hello everyone,
My name is Emily Foley, and I am a Doctoral Candidate at Saybrook University. I am conducting a research study exploring how cooking and gardening educators make sense of their role in influencing children's interest in food and healthy eating.
I am currently seeking educators who meet the eligibility criteria below for a one-on-one interview. If you know someone who may be eligible, I would be grateful if you would consider sharing this opportunity with them.
Eligible educators:
- Are at least 18 years old.
- Speak English.
- Have at least one year of experience teaching cooking and/or gardening to elementary-aged children (approximately ages 5–11).
- Currently teach, or have taught within the past several years, experiential cooking and/or gardening education.
Participation involves:
- One confidential interview lasting approximately 60–90 minutes.
- Conducted via Zoom or in person.
- Audio recorded for research purposes.
- A $25 gift card as a thank-you for participating.
Participation is completely voluntary, and all identities and interview responses will be kept confidential.
If you're interested in participating-or would simply like to learn more-please feel free to contact me directly. I'm happy to answer any questions, confirm eligibility, provide the informed consent document, and schedule an interview at a convenient time.
