The Children’s Digital Media Center at Georgetown University is always looking for motivated graduate and undergraduate students to help coordinate and conduct research. Our lab attracts enthusiastic, intelligent students of diverse backgrounds who want to join us in the investigation of how media affects learning. Although prior experience in a research lab is not required, we do expect all research assistants to be hard-working, committed to the lab, and have a background or interest in children’s media.

Graduate Research Assistants
The Children’s Digital Media Center at Georgetown University occasionally recruits Graduate Research Assistants. Graduate RAs are responsible for coordinating and conducting research on current projects and brainstorming future projects. Duties include but are not limited to data entry and analysis, measure and survey construction, data collection, school recruitment, and writing. Desired skills include experience in a research lab, working with SPSS, and media design skills. If interested, please contact us.

We are also looking for students with programming skills including database design, Cold Fusion, Flash and HTML.

Undergraduate Research Assistants
Undergraduate research assistants are recruited primarily from courses taught by Professor Calvert in the Department of Psychology. The main course requirement is Children and Technology, an advanced seminar. The seminar has a prerequisite of a basic development course, such as Childhood and Adolescence.
