Assessing Self-Guided Resources in the Library Makerspace

The purpose of this study is to understand how well the learning resources at UNC-Chapel Hill's Library Makerspace meet the needs of first-generation and international undergraduate students. The study will explore what resources are available, how they are designed to help students learn, and whether students feel these resources reflect their cultural values, learning styles, and goals. To do this, I will look closely at the learning materials, talk with students in a focus group, and test a new resource based on their feedback. The goal is to find ways to improve the Makerspace's self-guided learning tools so they better support students from diverse backgrounds. This research will help the Library Makerspace create a more welcoming and effective learning environment for all students.

Culturally Responsive Violence Prevention at UNC

This study is being conducted to understand how sexual violence impacts UNC's community and what student groups are most affected. This study aims to work with a group of 8-10 undergraduate students at UNC to collectively explore the impacts of sexual violence on different marginalized communities at UNC and co-create recommendations for culturally responsive violence prevention. Culturally responsive violence prevention includes trainings and other resources that can be tailored to different norms that exist in different cultural communities. This study does not focus on or discuss personal experiences with sexual violence at any point, and instead focuses on what can make students feel safer at UNC.

An interview study to identify people with lived and living experiences' perspectives on methadone dispensing at community pharmacies

To explore people with lived and living experience (PWLLE) of opioid use and/or taking methadone on the feasibility of and interest in pharmacy-centered methadone access at rural community pharmacies. The model for which we will elicit PWLLE perspectives parallels several similar successful programs that exist outside of the US and several successful small-scale pilots that have been conducted in urban areas of the US, including NC.

Religion and Organ Donation Registration Decisions in Black Christian Communities Study

This study explores how religious beliefs influence decisions about organ donation in Black Christian communities. Many Black Americans need organ transplants, but donation rates in these communities are lower than in others. Religious beliefs may play a role in these decisions, but past research has not fully explored how people learn about their religion's views on organ donation or how these beliefs affect their choices. By interviewing Black Christians, this study aims to better understand their thoughts, experiences, and concerns about organ donation. The goal is to help create better ways to share information about organ donation that respect religious beliefs and encourage informed decision-making.
