Updated 5 July 2021 due to more formatting issues…looking at you, Microsoft! : (

The Word form and non-form surveys have proven too difficult or non-user friendly to get a lot of responses. My last effort is just to post all the questions here in the blog and let you folks figure out how to copy, paste, respond, and send them to me (bart at heroictechwriting.com). I apologize for Microsoft’s tools not playing nicely with others. 

COVID-19 Arts & Recreation Survey

I am currently taking a class with Kepler Space Institute regarding arts and recreation in a space setting. People living in communities far from Earth will likely experience feelings of isolation or confinement due to living in close quarters and not being able to go “outside.” These experiences are similar to how people lived through the COVID-19 pandemic. This survey was designed to understand how people interacted with the arts and recreational activities while stuck in their own “space habitats.”
