<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;color:black'>We are seeking a
postdoctoral fellow to work on an educational research project investigating
prerequisite remediation for students using a pre-algebra computerized learning
system. The goal of this work is to improve the existing system by providing
just in time remediation for deficits in student knowledge or skills that may
hamper progress in the system. An ideal candidate for this position will have
experience with math pedagogy, instructional design, or teaching experience.
The position will involve designing and running experiments, data analysis, and
writing scholarly research articles. Other useful skills for this project
include task analysis, think aloud protocols and experience with computerized
learning systems.</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
