Hi Chris and Robyn, Attached is a brainstorm of possible questions we may have on a survey. If you can add to the list great. It also proposes a certain style of asking questions which allows for comparable and measurable data as well as more open ended and subjective data. It does this by offering a scale on each question which can be easily converted into graphs/tables (quantitative) while also providing a comment line which can be analysed for reoccurring more open and subjective themes (qualitative).
Part of the approach I am proposing (specifically because it is a self-help tool that we want to assess) is that we make the process as user friendly as possible prior to offering it and then stand back from the process all together. This could help us refrain from jumping in the drivers seat of the process. The problem here is that with our presence they may demand facilitation - especially Robyn who they are used to facilitation from. So one option is to hand it to them and leave them with it and the camera man. Alternatively we could respond to their questions briefly and note the questions as part of the survey feedback. Either way the less of us that actually attend the better because it increases the chances of compromising self-help.

Robyn pointed out that we need to have a hyphen in the name 'Co-operator'.

Hi Chris and Robyn, I have drafted a consent letter for the honours research with the over 50's group. I have addressed it from me because I'm required to do so by UWS. The wording is based on my understanding of our discussion yesterday but again it may change as it has to go through some official channels at UWS and meet the formalities. I think such formalities will likely improve the process as that is what they are trying to do for all concerned.
I think the consent letter could sound less of a commitment for them with the changes in the attached revision.
Robyn is talking to the group tomorrow and wants to ask them for permission for the video students to attend on the 30th to practice and develop their community engagement skills and video their experience.
I suggested she should talk to you about your draft, but she wants to firm up the date first and says that the use of the Co-operator and the survey can be attached to the event later.
I'm not sure about this process, but we are in Robyn's hands. If you like you could catch her before she goes in to talk to them tomorrow or if you are satisfied you could just leave it.

This was one of those emails which came from your personal email to ntw post instead of to gg. In adding to that conversation again now I have changed the address. Since all the postings appear below on this posting, gg should now have a full record. If you know of any other subjects which you sent to ntwpost by mistake, perhaps you could just resend them to gg.
Now regarding the survey form - I think the questions might work better in the following reshuffled order - 6-5-1-2-3-7-4. If you want me to explain why let me know, but perhaps you will agree without the explanation.

Hi Chris,
I just looked back at my outbox and I sent an email in this topic to
gmail on the 16th of March which took gg out of the loop because I cc
to Robyn and invited her into the conversation and I didn't want her
emails going public. If we want to include people in these discussions
we have to be clear that they are public. Next time Robyn googles
herself she will find this conversation. This is what happened to Peta
and she wasn't happy. In fact she probably wouldn't be happy for
Robyn's emails to be public as LMNC's CDW. I'm not sure what to do
here we still don't seem to have an entirely workable arrangement.
Re the survey - Those order changes are good. I have re attached
survey with new order.
Alex

I don't think there is anything wrong with the email arrangement we have. If you think someone might want to be private, you take responsibility for that and cut and paste the conversatin into a private mail and send it from ntw post. If you also want NTW in the loop as it should be on virtually everything to save us setting up a hierarchy, you need to report the points of the private person through gg. But obviously you can't complain about material being left out of gg if you didn't send it there.
Regarding the survey - I'm not sure what the attachment you sent is. It's not the original, nor is it the version I reworked that you are happy with - it's something quite different. I would have a few problems with this version, but I should wait to see if the one I sent you is Ok as you said.

If you look back at the record you'll see that I sent you this same
draft on the 17th of March and you emailed back that it was much
better and you were taking a copy home to work on. Then you sent me a
reshuffle of the order of the question which I did and sent back to
you.

The re-order I gave was that the original questions 1-7 should be reordered 6,5,1,2,3,7,4. You said you agreed with this but attached a file with them reordered 7,3,6,5,1, 4, 2.

Attached is the original order draft I sent you (the one you said was
much better, printed and took home). In this draft I have pasted your
reshuffle order in the top corner of the first Q. If you number all
the Q 1-7 and reshuffle into the order you originally requested
6-5-1-2-3-7-4 the order you get is the most recent draft I sent you -
so I have no idea what you want and am very hesitant of trying
anything else. Please open up the attachment look at the order you
have asked for in the top left corner and explain to me how I could
have done it in any other way.

There was an evolution of the draft with various comments. The inputs had reached a point on 18.3 and you sent me a redraft incorporating those comments in the email
Now it sounds as though there is some confusion which is making you angry. I don't understand why.
Your last draft said that you agreed with the reorder (there was only one reorder and it was a response to the last draft you sent on 18 March 2009 2:23:57 PM). My re-order of this draft was sent by me on 20 March 2009 11:05:04 AM.
Now if I am wrong you will need to quote the emails and bring my attention to any I've overlooked so I can know where we are up to and apologise for the confusion. If you are wrong it's up to you how you respond.

Hi Chris, On the 17th of March I sent you the exact draft I have
reattached to this email.
You responded on the same day saying that you liked this draft better
and that you would take it home and review it.

The next email I got on the 19th from you requested the re-shuffle.

>Chris
If you open up this draft and reshuffle it in the order you requeted
you get the draft I sent you on the 19th. (I have checked this a
number of times)
If this is not the order you want then open up the draft attached to
this email (which goes back to the draft you said you liked and would
review) and put the questions in the order you want and send it back
to me so I can review it.
>> Attached is the original order draft I sent you (the one you said was

You are ignoring the fact that you also sent an email on the 18th with a new draft. It was this redraft that I responded to - I responded to your draft of 18th on the 20th. Why would I respond to something you wrote on the 17 but superceded on the 18th?
I now re-attach your draft of 18th which I recommended be reordered 6-5-1-2-3-7-4.
I sent you an email record of this yesterday as follows -
Hi Alex,
There was an evolution of the draft with various comments. The inputs had reached a point on 18.3 and you sent me a redraft incorporating those comments in the email
Now it sounds as though there is some confusion which is making you angry. I don't understand why.
Your last draft said that you agreed with the reorder (there was only one reorder and it was a response to the last draft you sent on 18 March 2009 2:23:57 PM). My re-order of this draft was sent by me on 20 March 2009 11:05:04 AM.
Now if I am wrong you will need to quote the emails and bring my attention to any I've overlooked so I can know where we are up to and apologise for the confusion. If you are wrong it's up to you how you respond.

Hi Chris,
I can find no record either in my outbox or in gg or in ntw gg of
sending you this draft on the 18th. The draft I sent to you on the
17th is the last one I can find (other than after the reshuffle). This
is also a much later draft than this one you send to me now so it
would make no sense for me to have sent it to you on the 18th.
Even the 'quoated text' that appears under your reshuffle email shows
that you are directly replying to this 17th email I sent you on the
with the draft I am referring to. If you have an email in your inbox
from me on the 18th with the draft you say I sent on the 18th attached
please forward it to me.
All this aside the draft I have sent you is in fact my latest. I
changed the format of the questions because, as I explained in the
covering letter to it, I think it now does a far better job at being
user friendly than the one you are working from. It asks the questions
directly instead of asking for a more abstract scale.
Alex

I am pasting the whole email you sent me below. It contained the attachment I just sent you. The reason you can't find it in gg or gm as you will notice is because you sent it to my personal hotmail address. But wherever you sent it to or from, it was the revised version you sent me to which I responded.
I suspect the reason why the record you have does not represent what really happened is because after you sent mail to my personal address you cut and pasted a copy of it into the gm email conversation for the sake of having an NTW record.
In any event, in this email you now have the correct history and I earlier today sent the attachment I worked from to give you the paragraph order I suggested.
Hi Chris and Robyn, I agree that your wording for the choices is
better. The reason I had five choices - very poor poor neutral
good and very good is because it allows a full scale and opportunity
for a full range of feedback. This helps when analysing and graphing
the data. To drop the very poor as you suggested would not allow this
because there is no extreme negative option. In my draft attached I
have replaced the numbering with the actual choices to make it all a
little easier to use.
The new draft attached is I think better hinged on the actual research
question as I understand it. As I was saying yesterday the real
innovation here is that the Co-operator provides a process that
doesn't rely on facilitation of other specialised skills (treasury,
chairing etc.) - in such it could be a real self-help process. With
the new questions (wording still a little rough) in the attached draft
I have tried to ask how the process has fulfilled each of the duties a
facilitator would usually take care of to see if the Co-operator gets
there. Things like making sure everyone had a chance to be heard, that
the group stayed on topic etc. I have pasted the older draft below it
so that you can compare them. As I still have to run the survey past
my supervisor and an ethics committee there may be some more
suggestions yet.

Hi Chris,
The email you have cut and pasted only gives me the text I sent you -
I can't open it to see the attachment. If you look at the wording of
the text though it describes how I have replaced the numbering scale
with the actual options - this is the change in the new draft so why
would I send you a draft like the one you are using that still uses
the numbers?
I can assure you that I didn't cut and paste anything anywhere and I
didn't send anything to your personal email address either - I've sent
to your persoanl email very rarely and since the ntw gmail option not
at all. If i did i would remember and have a copy in my outbox. The
only record I've got is a draft sent on the 17th that contains the
draft I keep referring you back to which is despite anything else my
latest work and the latest development of the survey.
I'm pretty well over talking about this. I have attached my latest
work that represents a fair bit of effort since the draft you are
referring to - for the reasons outlined in the very email you have
sent back to me in your last email. If you don't like the order of the
questions or if you don't like some of the wording in it or if there
is something in the old draft that you like better please let me know
and we can discuss that. I see no other option for proceeding given
that the draft I'm referring to has been developed further than the
one you are refering to.

Hi Chris, I'm thinking it would be really good to do a follow meeting with the over 50s to do a showing of the video and to show them where we have gotten to (thanks in part to their use of it) with the development of the process. It would be good to get any feedback they might have about the evolution of the process.
Do you think you could talk to Louise about another meeting (If nothing else I think they will be keen to see the video). Perhaps if we shoot for mid to late June we can aim to have this stage of the posters development sorted by then to re-present to them (if only briefly).
