Overall Research Project Description The Large Class Pedagogy research project uses a mixed methods exploratory approach to investigate instructional practices utilized by teachers in overcrowded classrooms in low- and middle-income countries and develop profiles of teachers who can effectively manage teaching large classes. The purpose of this research is to determine what effective instructional methods are in use in low-resource classrooms with more than 80 children in order to inform later intervention research.

Research Tasks qualitative data analysis

Skills that research assistant(s) may need: recommended skills: familiarity with qualitative data analysis; familiarity with primary school classroom instruction
required skills: time management

Mentoring Philosophy I believe that becoming a researcher is a matter of recognizing that we conduct data analysis every day as we make choices about our lives and learning how to apply those skills to novel data sets and contexts. I support my team to develop skills we all inherently possess to better understand the world around us. My research team collaborates in a healthy, respectful environment where all team members are able to freely share areas where they feel they need more training, support, or guidance in order to continue growing, learning, and contributing to the project.
