(Remote Internship) A Collaborative Study of Organizational & Educational Psychology Literature
The Organizational/Educational Psychology community explores research on both the study of psychology in academia and the psychology utilized in productivity and task management. By using 1Cademy, interns learn how to break down articles into granular concepts, connect them within a larger context of research, communicate their findings to other community interns, and utilize information to write research studies. We value collaborative learning, and expect interns to participate in group discussions both to dive deeper into the content and regularly improve their own content.
