The National Institute of Education (Nanyang Technological University, Singapore) invite suitable applications for the position of Research Associate on a one-year contract (with possibilities of extension) at the Office of Education Research, Science of Learning in Education Centre (SoLEC).

Project Title: Science of learning-based interventions to improve literacy, numeracy, and well-being in students: an umbrella review

Project Information: The main objective of this project is to synthesize work on interventions that have been designed to level-up students who face difficulties in literacy, numeracy, and well-being from Primary to Secondary levels, including those from disadvantaged backgrounds or with special needs. By means of a PRISMA framework, we will conduct a systematic literature search and screening to identify eligible articles for each topic. A preliminary literature search will be conducted to estimate the amount of literature on each topic. As approach to synthesize the literature, we will use an umbrella review for each topic, i.e., focusing on meta-synthesis, synthesis, and review literature. The findings will allow the identification of effective interventions for each topic in facing challenges throughout the students’ school period.

Requirements:

• Academic qualification:

Master’s degree in Education and/or Psychology or similar areas

• Work experience:Prior experience conducting systematic literature reviews
  Prior experience conducting qualitative and quantitative analysis
  Prior experience conducting meta-analysis
  Prior experience disseminating research findings targeting the general public and academic audiences
  
  
• Desirable interests, skills, and attributes:Passion for teaching and learning
  Interest in effective teaching in school settings
  Have good communication and organizational skills
  Have good interpersonal skills
  Be a good team-player, proactive, and able to work independently
  

Responsibilities:

• To conduct systematic literature reviews (summarizing, coding, and organizing relevant literature).
• To compute different statistical analyses for the findings obtained.
• To contribute to research translation and dissemination of findings targeting the general public and academic audiences.
• To perform other tasks as required by the Principal Investigators.
