Each group will be conducted on zoom. The groups will be 1 hour long and will have a maximum of 6 teachers and 2 group facilitators. The group will begin with introductions and a summary of the purpose and aims of the groups. The facilitators will then ask a series of open-ended questions and teachers will be able to share their insights and thoughts through discussion and use of the zoom chat feature.
Information will be anonymised and shared only within the company. The insights shared by teachers will be used to further inform Doodle products.
We will be holding these focus groups on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons through January and February.
