Graduate Student | Education | Educational Psychology and Learning Sciences | Sunyoung Park | Designing and Developing a Game for Learning Healthy Diet | No | 2 | computer engineering, computer programming and applications, computer science, communication and digital media studies, information technology, dietetics, food and nutrition, motion picture arts | Game-based learning, Healthy diet, Mindful eating, Serious game | I am a second year PhD student. I have been in several research projects so far and I think this is my another research project, just a bit bigger. This means that I treat every member in the research group equally, although I will be managing the overall progress. We're all at the same starting point, trying to learn something new from our experience. In the project, we will have clear expectations for one another and written agenda for every weekly meeting. I will always check if your tasks sound reasonable and if everything is clear on your end. This project is also open for modification, so if you have a better idea on how to design a game, you would speak up and we will listen to you. As we are from the college of education and communication, it will be also a great opportunity for you to access the theoretical background of a serious game design process, if you have been only familiar with programming in general. I expect all of us to respect one another's time. This means that the weekly meeting will be concise and clear and everyone is expected to get their tasks done in a timely manner. We will communicate on Slack, a professional communication platform, and based on your background knowledge, we will design your mentorship trajectory in our first meeting. We can always discuss to change it to meet our needs. |

Faculty | Arts and Sciences | History Department and Native American and Indigenous Studies Center | FSU and the History of Miss Seminole Tribe | No | 3 | Open to all majors | Seminole, FSU, Homecoming, History, Tallahassee | When mentoring students, my philosophy is to give them enough guidance to minimize the risks that they may face in the research process and to give them enough encouragement to make educated guesses and learn from and not get frustrated by the dead-ends that they will inevitably encounter. In the end, students will learn what it means to do historical research and should feel like they are full partners in the larger project. | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | ||

Graduate Student | Social Sciences and Public Policy | College of Education Counseling and School Psychology | The Impact of Microaggressions Through the Usage of Cannabis Among Transgender Individuals Through a Biopsychosocial Lens | Yes | 2 | Open to all majors | Psychology Transgender Diversity Intersectionality Microaggressions | My mentoring philosophy in the realm of transgender psychology emphasizes the provision of comprehensive guidance and support within an academic context. I aim to create a secure and inclusive learning environment that fosters open dialogue and critical thinking. To ensure academic integrity, I rely on evidence-based research and current scholarly literature to inform discussions. This allows mentees to gain a thorough understanding of the psychological dimensions associated with transgender identities, experiences, and mental health. Promoting empathy and respect is fundamental to my approach. I strive to cultivate an environment free from judgment or discrimination, where individuals feel supported as they explore the topic. By establishing a strong mentor-mentee relationship, I provide guidance and resources to facilitate personal and intellectual growth. Recognizing the diversity within the transgender community, I emphasize an intersectional lens. This involves examining how gender identity intersects with race, ethnicity, sexuality, and socioeconomic status. By adopting this approach, I shed light on the diverse challenges and experiences faced by transgender individuals. Self-reflection and self-awareness are important aspects of navigating transgender topics. It is crucial to critically examine personal biases and assumptions to develop a deeper understanding of the lived experiences of transgender individuals. In summary, my mentoring philosophy prioritizes an inclusive and respectful space for exploring transgender psychology. I adhere to academic rigor, foster empathy, and encourage open dialogue. By providing guidance rooted in evidence-based research, I aim to support mentees in their personal and intellectual growth while promoting understanding and appreciation for transgender individuals and their experiences. |

I share my own experiences and why I chose the field of epidemiology to conduct population research. The reason for this is that I want the potential mentee to determine if I am someone that they would be comfortable working with---this is the most important factor. If the mentee wants to continue the conversation and learn more, I will then ask them "what is that thing that really piques your interest? When you read/hear about it, you have so many questions." I then attempt to provide research related activities that will nurture those interests and will lead to the development of project ideas. This provides the mentee with an immediate sense of a certain level of ownership of the project idea and a significant stake in the success of the project. Hopefully, this process will inspire a career in research under the mentee's terms. | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | |||||

Faculty | Fine Arts | Art Education | Teaching Tallahassee: An Interdisciplinary Civics and Art Curriculum Project | Yes | 3 | Art Education, Social Studies Education, Education - general, History | art education, curriculum development, place-based education, qualitative research, teacher interviews | I am interested in working with emerging scholars who are motivated to learn more about how education, and in particular art education, can intentionally support young people's civic engagement or, in other words, their ability to change the world. Participation in this project, which is grant-funded and has a team of three faculty and two doctoral research assistants, will allow mentees to become familiar with the structure and processes of a qualitative research project. In joining the research team, mentees will have the opportunity to work with local teachers and observe the curriculum development process. In parallel, they will be invited to contribute reflections, emerging analyses, and suggestions with fellow research team members. My mentoring philosophy is invitational in nature: I am happy to facilitate a mentee's observation and administrative assistance within our project, but need feedback and engagement from the mentee to assist you turning your participation into a research project. As individual interests emerge though participation, I enjoy working with mentees on the best ways to tailor their work for the benefit of the project and their own goals as emerging scholars. | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | ||

Scientifically, we look to provide students with a comprehensive introduction to field-based research through exposure to the data collection and post-analysis cycle of long-term monitoring. We aim to expand the student’s ability to comprehend and report scientific findings, meeting them where they are at and working together to demonstrate how to approach future scientific inquiry. Communicatively, we will ensure that you always have clear guidance on the task at hand but will encourage and guide independent problem-solving that can be applied to future research opportunities. We encourage active communication to meet the student’s needs while also exercising skills in time management and independence. Professionally, we also look to expose the student to our lab’s team of faculty, staff, and graduate students who are always eager to connect and share their journeys. | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | ||

Faculty | Communication and Information | Information | Ben Ravuri (doctoral candidate) | CCI Machine Learning Lab | No | 2 | We prefer STEM majors. Working with AI requires some experience with a software language. We use Python, Jupyter Notebooks. |
Machine learning, artificial intelligence, computer vision, research | Teamwork is an important aspect of the lab. We work as a team, collaboration is key. A small group of professional bicycle riders working together is a Peloton. The teamwork required to make a Peloton is overt, and it’s thrilling to witness. Each rider takes a turn at the front of the pack, peddling as hard as possible for as long as they can endure. The mass of the following group creates a vortex. As each lead cyclist runs out of energy, they drop back to the rear, where the draft pulls last rider along without the need for peddling. The exhausted rider can rest, pulled along by the team. The rest of the team keeps the pack moving to complement the lead rider's efforts, until it is their turn to lead again. No matter how ambitious, or how strong a single cyclist might be, one cyclist cannot outrun a Peloton. Each MLabber makes a contribution to their project, sometimes we lead, other times we support others as they lead through their hard work. We respect collaboration and team effort. As a mentor: for the most part, I am hands-off. When the going is tough, I jump in to help navigate unfamiliar territory. Trial and error are expected. UROPers have my full support (and help) to learn by doing, figuring out what works. It’s a safe environment in which mentees feel that is acceptable to fail and learn from their mistakes. The goal is to learn. |

I accomplish that through active listening, empathy, and understanding the unique needs and aspirations of each mentee. Constructive feedback, tailored to individual growth, forms an integral part of my mentorship. I prioritize accessibility and responsiveness, dedicating ample time and attention to the individual journeys of each mentee. Finally, I am unwavering in my commitment to support development, celebrate achievements, and serve as a lifelong resource and advocate for all mentees. I believe that mentorship is best thought of as a continuous learning journey, where we all grow as a team and collectively propel each other toward personal, academic, and professional success. |
