I'll be launching www.audiologystudent.com later this summer. It's
intended to be a non-program-specific gathering place for audiology
students at any level. We have forums, articles, tutorials, etc. I
need help with a few things:
1. DIARIES/BLOGS: I would like to have students volunteer to write
excerpts about their life in school (at whatever level, from
pre-audiology to the distance AuD/residential AuD/Ph.D./Sc.D.) to be
posted online. The committment would be at least 6 months, though I
would hope to have the writings continue through graduation if
possible. The frequency would be at least twice a month - of a few
paragraphs. An example site is www.medschooldiary.com ; I would like
for incoming students to have a feel for what it's like to be at any
given program/level.
2. ARTICLES: the site is by/for/about students ... any topic that's
interesting or relevant to audiology students at any level is fair
game! Articles can be informational or editorials, of any length. I
would prefer to cite rather than have anonymous writing.
3. TUTORIALS: I'm slogging through writing up tutorials/study guides
for various topics in audiology and related courses. If you have a
particular interest in a topic (e.g. tympanometry), and would like to
write a study guide for it, please contact me.
For any of these, please contact me at AuD (at) audiologystudent.com.
Looking forward to seeing you at the site later this summer (check in
with us in early August - site is set to open at the end of July at
this point).
