Research Assistant Position - Vanderbilt University
[Note: This research position may be of interest to graduating cognitive science or psychology majors. Dr. Daniel Levin is also very interested in admitting graduate students to Vanderbilt next fall.]
We are seeking a full time Research Assistant (RA) for two to three years to coordinate research exploring the cognitive basis of interactions between humans and artificial computerized agents. This project is an interdisciplinary collaboration between investigators in the department of Psychology and Human Development (Dan Levin and Megan Saylor) and in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (Julie Adams and Gautam Biswas) exploring how people think about the internal processes inherent to a range of living and mechanical agents, and how these cognitions affect interactions with agents in two specific settings: a system for on-line tracking of multiple unmanned robots, and a teachable agent system designed to help grade school students learn biology. Main duties include running human subjects, analyzing data, creating stimuli, setting up experiments, supervising undergraduates and some computer programming (if possible). There are also possibilities for publications and conference presentations. Coursework in psychology and computer science, and behavioral science research experience are highly desirable. Helpful computer skills include strong working knowledge of SPSS, Excel, PowerPoint, Matlab, Psychology lab software (Superlab, Psychophysics toolbox), Photoshop, programming (any language).
To learn more about the project, its overarching goal, intellectual merit, and broader impacts, contact the Principal Investigator:
Daniel Levin
Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies Cognition and Cognitive Neuroscience Vanderbilt University

Student Radio Station WIUX Seeks Volunteers
Greetings,
I am the student general manager of WIUX 99.1FM (wiux.org). We are seeking volunteers for the fall semester and I was wondering if you could pass along some information to your students on my behalf. Student organizations are a great way for individuals to supplement their experience and learning in the classroom with real-world opportunities.
At IU's student radio station, students can host music, news, talk, or sports shows. In addition the station has multiple committees which can supplement what students in various disciplines are learning in the classroom. Here is a list of our committees at WIUX:
-Business Operations/Underwriting (Great for students seeking sales
experience)
-Programming (Encourages students to utilize organization and problem solving skills)
-Music (Activities include reviewing new music, organizing the WIUX music library, and conducting interviews with musicians)
-Sports (Students are able to engineer or announce broadcasts of 9 different Hoosier sports including Football, basketball, and baseball)
-Promotions (Students can help WIUX reinforce its branding and imaging efforts by organizing and executing creative promotional campaigns)
-News (Students help prepare pieces and announce for a one-hour news program every weeknight)
-Special Events (Students can organize concerts, movie screenings, art shows, and other community events that raise awareness of WIUX and other local organizations)
-Engineering (Students learn about the technical operations of a radio station and help set up PA equipment for WIUX and other student-sponsored events)
-Public Relations (Students prepare and send out press releases, address other media entities, and help build a positive image for our organization and university)
-Production (Create pre-recorded items using audio editing software that helps reinforce the station's image on-air)
-New Media/Web (Students can help maintain wiux.org, the live webstream, podcasts, and all other aspects of WIUX's online presence)
As you can see, there are many opportunities for students to take advantage of at WIUX.
Our informational call-out meeting is Wednesday, September 10 at 8pm in the Radio/TV building room 251. The meeting should not last more than 30-45 minutes and we will let students know how to apply or get involved. Please send any questions to me at: crshank@indiana.edu, or to cshank@wiux.org.
Thanks,
Craig Shank

Interested in a Research Assistantship?
** The Computational Cognition and Learning Lab is looking for motivated undergraduates interested in assisting graduate students in cognitive development and human cognition research in the fall 2008
Our lab studies human development and learning through both empirical studies and computational models. We are particularly interested in how language is grounded in sensorimotor experience and how language development depends on complex interactions among brain, body and environment.
If you are interested in learning how to conduct research, and have 10 hours per week available, we are looking for you. You will receive lab class credit. More importantly, if you are considering graduate school, this is a great opportunity to see what working in a lab is really like.
If you are interested in applying, please send the following information to Amara Stuehling astuehli@indiana.edu
