Subject:Survey for recent Study Abroad Participants

Greetings colleagues!

My name is Aja Ishmael, and I am a PhD student in the Department of  
Arabic and Islamic Studies at Georgetown University and a first-time  
poster to this list. I am currently working on a paper with two of my  
colleagues that deals with Arabic second language acquisition in a  
study abroad context, and it is this project that has brought me out  
of lurk mode and encouraged me to post an e-mail asking for your help.

My colleagues and I are hoping to collect a variety of information  
about Arabic study abroad experiences for our paper. To do so, we have  
created an electronic survey, which can be found at the link listed  
below. If you, or if any of your students or colleagues or anyone else  
you know has studied Arabic abroad in the recent past-- i.e., finished  
studying abroad in 2005 or later-- would you be so kind as to help us  
out by completing the survey or passing it along? Participants do NOT  
have to be university students-- any adult who has studied Arabic  
abroad since 2005 can fill out the survey.

As I am sure you know, this is a relatively new area of research. We  
are hoping to get a rather large response rate, covering student  
experiences in as many different programs in as many different  
countries as possible. We can only do this with your help-- so please  
know that any assistance you are able to provide will be greatly  
appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your time and help!

Alf shukr!
