<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear Csaa-ers</div><div>We (a team of media researchers at RMIT) are currently recruiting rural families in NSW and Victoria (we're looking for families with small and/or teenaged children) for a study of household digital media use we're doing with KPMG. </div>
<div><br></div><div>All participating families receive an ipad mini (or another device of similar value) to thank them for their time.</div><div><br></div><div>If you know of any families who might be interested in participating please pass on my details (<a href="mailto:Tania.Lewis@rmit.edu.au">Tania.Lewis@rmit.edu.au</a>) or the details of the postdoc on the project (<a href="mailto:victor.albert@rmit.edu.au">victor.albert@rmit.edu.au</a>) to the family concerned.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I've included some more details re the project below.</div><div>Thanks!</div><div>Tania</div><div> </div><div><br></div><div>Do you or members of your family use digital technology on a daily basis? Do you have high speed broadband, and is the internet, smartphones and social media part of your everyday life? Would you like to take part in a study of digital media in the home?</div>
<div><br></div><div>We are currently recruiting a limited number of households from Victoria and NSW to take part in a research project called Digital Rhythms: an ethnographic study of digital content in Australia run by RMIT in conjunction with the global auditing firm, KPMG. The project aims to capture the everyday digital media use of a small group of households, from single households to extended families. As part of the study we would like to make a total of three visits to your house and spend time with you and your family/co-habitants talking about how you use digital media and the role it plays in your day-to-day life. To thank you for participating in the project after the third visit you will receive an iPad mini or another device of similar value. </div>
<div><br></div><div>If you are interested in participating or would like to find out more about the study, please contact:</div><div><br></div><div>Dr Victor Albert</div><div>Post-Doctoral Research Fellow</div><div><a href="mailto:victor.albert@rmit.edu.au">victor.albert@rmit.edu.au</a></div>
