OneGoal is hiring for a Quantitative Research Assistant – Temp, Part-Time position (10 hours week/$40 hour) focusing on: - Conducting Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) on survey datasets to investigate the underlying structure of the scales. - Using Item Response Theory techniques (i.e., two-parameter graded response models) to investigate the reliability and validity of the survey subscales. - Conducting differential item functioning analyses on the survey scales based on sociodemographic and academic characteristics (e.g., racial/ethnic identification, grade level, college generation status, access to early college coursework). - Investigating the extent to which the survey data changes over time using techniques such as dynamic control/p-charts. - Providing a final report containing a summary of findings and a set of practical recommendations for improving the structure of the survey scales, as well as clear documentation of analyses and results. Know someone who might be a good fit?

Assessments are critical in understanding what we're doing right, and if we're doing the right things when it comes to training and educating our joint force to the prescribed standard. This is a skill for some and a talent for others. Please share with both. #assessments #authenticassessments #academia #jointinformationcommunity 😉

I have been checking the applications for our recent open positions, and I found many good applicants just forcing themselves to fit the position. Their CVs are much better for far different calls, far different positions, far different jobs. #call #position #recruiting #hiring #hire #open #openposition #phd #postdoc #doctoral #postdoctoral #fit #job #applications #applicants #apply #cv #force #success

Interesting supply and demand situation with computer science majors. #college #university #highered #stem #computerscience #tech #careers Tech giants that were expanding aggressively just a few years ago now have less need for entry-level hires—or are shedding jobs. They are also, increasingly, turning their focus to artificial intelligence, a technology many fear could reduce the need for coders. Postings on jobs website Indeed for software-development roles, a proxy for computer science, have dropped 30% from prepandemic levels. At the same time, companies have a burgeoning supply of new grads to choose from. The number of students in the U.S. majoring in computer and information science has jumped 40% in five years, to more than 600,000 as of 2023. The number of bachelor’s degrees conferred in those majors topped 100,000 in 2021, according to the Department of Education, a 140% rise from 10 years earlier. https://lnkd.in/eiH_MCHx

I know most of my friends and contacts work in the following fields! Are you still thinking that a college intern would be a great add to your organization or team this summer, but don't have the capacity to do a last-minute search? Message me if you're looking--The Washington Center is still placing internship candidates this summer in our mission to connect learners with rigorous internship experiences! 🌟 #PoliticalScience (policy, legislation, lobbying, international affairs) 🌟 #Advocacy (social justice, health advocacy, etc.) 🌟 #Law (legal work, criminal justice, or criminal justice reform) 🌟 #Technology (coding, software development, cybersecurity)

Question for the hiring community: would you like to learn more about the latest advances and projects done by local education communities? (Published works, student organization milestones, etc.) How about a monthly report highlighting recent achievements and goals of local graduate students and student organizations that relate to your company's mission? If this sounds like something that might interest you, I would really love to connect! Please comment or message your email, field, mission or anything else you'd like to share. The intent of this post is to scope potential interest for a side project I'm pursuing. This is NOT limited to CS. I would LOVE to hear from all fields that have interest. Non hiring managers (students, etc.) are welcome to like and spread the message!
