The only purpose of this information is so that I can put you into groups for the course, and so that I have contact information for you in case of an emergency.

This information will NOT be shared with other students, and I won't use any of this information to determine your grade. Any questions about your attitudes or experiences are just there so that I can attempt to put you into groups with other students that are likely to work well as fellow group members. So please feel comfortable answering all the questions as honestly as you can!
