Survey to assess impact of 2019 Canada Winter Games on RDC
A three-part survey being conducted by Red Deer College faculty members will assess the impact of the 2019 Canada Winter Games on students, staff and faculty.
Part one, which asked respondents what they anticipated the impacts would be, was done prior to the Games. The next phase will take place immediately following the Games, and the third once the school year is over.
“The results will look at the impact of the Games and it’ll measure the difference in the anticipated impact, versus the actual impact,” explains Paulette Hanna, RDC Vice President Academic.
“Faculty members will have the opportunity to publish the results in peer-reviewed journals, and they’ll present the results at academic conferences next year. The results can also be given to the Host Society who then may share them with the other cities or communities that will be hosting Winter Games.”
