Neuroscience students need research participants
Neuroscience research students are conducting a study to understand the link between feedback and collaborative learning. The study was inspired by the conditions under which students had to learn during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, when students were not always able to ask questions of their instructors in real-time.
Participants will play a card-matching game in which they will describe abstract shapes to a partner with varying levels of communication allowed. They also may choose to participate in the second part of the study, in which brain responses will be measured using EEG by placing a cap on the head to record electrical activity.
The study will take about 25 minutes for the first part and 25 minutes for the second part and participants will be entered into a raffle to win one of ten $10 Amazon gift cards.
Note: If you participated in the "Card matching study" for PSYC 100 in fall 2022 you are not eligible to participate again.
If you have any questions about the research or would like more information, contact faculty advisor Dr. Rupa Gordon. This research project has been reviewed and approved by the Augustana Institutional Review Board, which can be contacted at IRB@augustana.edu.
