For those with a little spare time and wanting to hone their skills as a mentor, here's an interesting project to help an aspiring technologist and researcher:
My name is Jordan Loeser, and I’m a senior at Westfield High School in Indiana. I’m interested in technology and design and where the two intersect, so I am conducting a senior research project to answer a couple of questions about "mobile-first" web development. More specifically, my tentative question is: “How does viewing environment, particularly mobile device usage, affect web content retention and comprehension?” As part of this process, I am looking for mentors with experience in research, writing, web design, or psychology who would be willing to offer a professional perspective on my topic. The project will extend until February, and the schedule is very flexible. At the moment, I imagine contacting a mentor through email or phone every couple of months with progress checks. If you are interested in helping with this project, or if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email me ([email protected]).
