Project Description

This project is one component of a multi-million-dollar interdisciplinary grant that aims to address the research to practice gap associated with the identification and treatment of children with learning disabilities in language, word reading, and reading comprehension. This project is focused on Project 3 which uses an implementation science approach to better understand how to develop sustainable process for assessment systems in authentic school settings.

Research Tasks: Research tasks include training to learn how to code qualitative data, training on the overall project goals and fidelity practices, coding the qualitative data, and familiarization with the related literature for the project.

Skills that research assistant(s) may need: RAs need access to Redcap, excel, attention to detail, and access to Zoom. Must have adherence to deadlines, CITI training for IRB compliance and the capacity to complete work in a timely manner.

Mentoring Philosophy

I believe that mentoring students is a collaborative journey where both I and my mentees can learn and grow. My goal is to foster an environment where curiosity is encouraged, and students feel empowered to explore new ideas, ask questions, and challenge themselves. I also believe in developing relationships based on mutual respect and accountability on both parts to promote productivity and balance.
