Hi,

For my MA dissertation "User-generated content and participatory audiences in journalism" at Newcastle University I am currently
conducting research into user motivation and participation.

Instead of looking at this topic from the journalists side, I want to focus on why people participate and  how people engage in the production of user-generated
content in a journalistic framework and if this can create a public sphere for discussion and debate outside mainstream media coverage.

For this purpose I am planning to conduct a survey among participants of several user-generated content platforms. Wikinews is one of the obvious choices and I would really appreciate it iif some of you would be able to take 5-10 minutes to participate in this survey.

The survey can be found at:

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to let me know...

thanks
Rainer Kalupke
