Research survey: Co-designing an inclusive and accessible intervention or prevention initiative
How can high academic stress be reduced or prevented for higher education students?
Higher education accessibility/disability or well-being support staff as well as students can engage in co-design and help to understand how inclusive and accessible ways high stress can be reduced.
You are invited to help design a stress reduction (or prevention) initiative by contributing and reflecting on ideas about how students’ high academic stress can be reduced in higher education. Academic stress is considered stress related to students’ studies, such as learning and achieving, navigating university life, and managing studies alongside other commitments.
You would be asked to contribute and reflect on ideas on a digital whiteboard (called a Mural board).
- Responses can be added to the board anonymously.
- You may also be invited to contribute to the digital whiteboard during an interview or focus group if you have indicated this is your preference.
Your participation is greatly appreciated and will provide insight into how higher education institutions may be able to reduce stress for students in inclusive and accessible ways. This will also add to the limited body of research available on inclusive and accessible stress reduction initiatives for the diverse range of students in our higher education settings.
