ground zero

met with the two psych guys. three hours! first one who talks a lot about the meaning, the questions, the deep stuff. then the other one who's better at talking about format, sources, reasons, arguments. i love those guys, i wish they were on my committee! their kindness and generosity is amazing! and i should really meet with them more often. in fact, i've then spent about 10 hours reworking my student questionnaire and i'll show it to them before i send it for translations.

still no news from either pilot school...

got the translations back for the consent form in chinese and spanish and the questionnaire in spanish. too bad i'll have to rewrite half of it... also sent an email to a group of students called friends of europe to ask for people who could help me back translating the questionnaires and making all the changes and editing and all... it's going to be hard because it's summer and international students are either at home somewhere else in the world or working like mad men on their doctoral project, like me... so either way, not really available for doing some back translating for a slice of pizza...
