Switch from Qualtrics to QuestionPro

UGA’s new enterprise survey research tool, QuestionPro, is now available.

QuestionPro will replace Qualtrics as UGA’s free enterprise survey research tool for students, faculty, and staff. All current faculty and staff account holders will continue to have access to Qualtrics through December 2025, but only departments participating in the cost-sharing program will retain access in January 2026. Additionally, only accounts approved by the College will retain access in January 2026. All other user accounts will be deactivated (deleted). Please refer to the timeline for the College’s processes.

Attend QUAL Lab Speaker Series with Susan Cannon today

  • Date: Wednesday, March 19
  • Time: Noon-1 p.m.
  • Location: Zoom (register today)
  • Presenter: Susan Cannon, assistant professor, Department of Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies Education

Join the UGA qualitative research program for the UGA QUAL Lab Speaker Series, “Listening as a Gift: What Listening (Still) has to Offer Qualitative Inquiry,” presented by Susan Cannon.

As technologies make it easier not to listen, when meetings are summed up by AI and interviews are automatically transcribed, qualitative researchers may feel the pull to save time by not listening. Yet, this logic relies on the assumption and understanding that time is scarce. Kimmerer (2024) suggested that “recognizing ‘enoughness’ is a radical act in an economy that is always urging us to consume more” (p. 12). What if we had enough time? What other questions and insights might (another) listening offer? Listening takes time, and the process of listening creates ongoing and reciprocal relations. In this presentation, Cannon will trace her engagements with listening, transcription, responsibility, and representation and share thoughts on what listening (still) has to offer qualitative inquiry.
