Rebecca Maymon, PhD6

I am a research assistant for the Achievement Motivation and Emotion (AME) Research Group, working under the supervision of Dr. Nathan Hall. I completed my B.A. in psychology at Rutgers University, where I also worked as a research assistant in the Social Perception Lab under the supervision of Dr. Lee Jussim. My research interests include achievement motivation and emotions, motivation related to technology use in academic contexts, peer support and sense of belonging in university settings, and statistical methods and modeling. Currently, I am examining motivational strategies used by university students in the face of technology failures.

Maedeh Kazemitabar, PhD6

I am interested in several themes: 1) Emotions and emotion regulation in individual and social learning environments, 2) Behavioral and physiological detection of regulated emotions, 3) Analysis of emotions in Human Computer Interaction (HCI) and, and 4) emotional and motivational factors in Computer Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL). I have been working on several projects as a member of the ATLAS laboratory and within the Learning Environments Across Disciplines (LEADS) research partnership funded by the Canadian Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and headed by Dr. Susanne Lajoie at 平特五不中. The projects that I have been working on include: a) The Empathy Project, b) Bioworld, and c) MetaProf. I received my Bachelor of Science at Sharif University of Technology, and my Master of Arts at 平特五不中.
