Description: In this age of educational accountability, many teachers and schools have resorted to "teaching to the test" to ensure high scores. Our study will assess the effectiveness of different types of test preparation on college students, and we will consider the results according to cognitive theory. Afterward, we hope to examine how people apply the knowledge they learned during test-preparation to a real-world situation.
Qualifications: Highly dedicated, responsible, and enthusiastic, with a flexible schedule and at least a "B" in PSY 418.

Duties:

Assisting in library research, experiment preparation, data collection, and analysis.
