Volunteer Opportunity

Kelsey Robson, PhD Candidate at Lakehead University, is looking for students who might be interested in supporting her in transcribing video data for her PhD dissertation research study. This would be an excellent opportunity for students who have an interest in research, or potential graduate work. The study supports work in the field of Early Childhood Education, and works with philosophies connected to the Reggio Emilia approach to education. Upon completion of the work, Kelsey is willing to write a reference letter outlining your roles and responsibilities in connection to the project.
