Student Research on Climbing Partnerships

FlynnB's picture

My name is Flynn Battaerd and I am a relatively new member to CMC. I am currently a 3rd year student at Christchurch Polytech doing the degree in Outdoor Education and Adventure Education. As part of my mountaineering and research papers I am required to carry out a research project. I have decided to focus on the factors that are involved in mountaineering partnerships

Are any of you CMC mountaineers prepared to do an interview to help this research?

As an introduction:

* I am Flynn Battaerd from CPIT Bachelor of Adventure Recreation and Outdoor Education
* My research is - Mountaineering partnerships
* I would need an hour long interview at a time that suited the participant
* The participant needs to have been on at least 3 trips with the same partner
* This could be some one who did their mountaineering a while ago perhaps

Anyone interested please email flynnbat@gmail.com">flynnbat@gmail.com or phone 03-3898186

Thanks, Flynn.

I will present my findings here on the web page, once I have completed the project. I am happy to say something at a monthly meeting or publish it in the magazine/ newsletter to repay the participants for their help, subject to the CMC committee deciding what is appropriate.
