Say “hello” to Claudie Jamison!

My name is Claudie J. I am a senior at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, majoring in psychology with a neuroscience emphasis. I am currently an honorary fellow at the University of Wisconsin-Madison doing research on cognitive development in children. I am excited about this semester as I further my research experience in the Cognitive Development and Communication Lab!

Meet Kylie Robinson : )

My name is Kylie Robinson, and I am a former UW-Madison student who studied Communication Sciences and Disorders and worked in the Cognitive Development and Communication Lab for 2.5 years. I am now pursuing a career in speech-language pathology at UW-Milwaukee, and I couldn't be more excited! I have loved getting to apply what I have learned in the classroom, both at UW and UWM, to working with clients in real-time. Over the course of my 2-year program, I will complete a thesis, a certificate in Augmentative and Alternative Communication (i.e., AAC), acquire 400 hours working with individuals with speech and language disorders in clinical placements, and earn a Master’s Degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders. Whether I end up in an educational or medical setting, I am looking forward to working with people to improve their interactions with others and the environment around them, and hopefully enhance their overall quality of life. As much as I love and miss the city of Madison, it has been fun to explore the amazing city of Milwaukee and pursue a rewarding career in speech-language pathology!

As the semester comes to a close, we will also say good bye to our lab’s project managers. Over the next two weeks, we will post about them to let you know where they’re heading next!

First up is the Algebra project manager, Elena Silla! This fall, Elena will begin a Ph.D. in Education (Learning Sciences) at the University of Delaware. She will be working with Dr. Christina Barbieri and Dr. Nancy Jordan and will be studying what instructional practices best help students learn math concepts such as fractions and algebra. Elena is also interested in how we as researchers can partner with teachers to better help students learn math. She is very thankful for her time working in the Cognitive Development and Communication Lab and for the wonderful people and mentors she met!

🚨New Study Alert! 🚨

The Cognitive Development & Communication Lab, in collaboration with the Mathematics Education Learning & Development Lab, is looking for 4th and 5th graders to participate in an online study about math learning.

The study is a two session study that takes 60 minutes. Students will be asked to solve math problems and talk about math with an experimenter. Families will be compensated after each session.

Our next senior spotlight is Shivali Zala! Shivali graduated this spring with a degree in Psychology. After graduation, Shivali plans to take a couple of gap years working as a medical scribe and EMT before attending medical school.

About her time in the lab, Shivali says: “I send my love and thanks to the CD&C lab for making my undergraduate experience special. I have learned so much, from gesturing to how children understand genetic inheritance. I have met so many wonderful people and am going to miss everyone in the lab.”

We will miss you, Shivali!

Congrats to all of the graduates who graduated this weekend! And a special congratulations to the graduating members of our lab! We wanted to shine a spotlight on a few of them and thank them for their hard work.

First is Kylie Robinson, who recently graduated with a degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders and two certificates in Dance/Movement Therapy and Education and Educational Services. Kylie plans to attend UW-Milwaukee next year to earn her Masters in Speech-Language Pathology, which she is very excited about!

About her time in the lab, Kylie says: “Delving into the neighboring field of psychology through this lab helped me to gain insight to behaviors and mindsets that individuals I work with might have. This enhanced my understanding of the functional usage of this research in the CS&D field.”

We will miss you, Kylie!
