NED23 Survey

Please assist a fellow OUA student by filling out this short survey. I am currently undertaking NED23 and am interested in your opionion regarding website usability.

I'm not sure why, but on blogger there is a big blank space between here and the survey so please scroll down... If you know the reason for the blankness please let me know!! Might just be a mac thing..
