Singapore Nanyang Technological University Full time

The Centre for Lifelong Learning and Individualised Cognition (CLIC), funded by the

National Research Foundation (NRF)

in Singapore and coordinated through the

Cambridge Centre for Advanced Research and Education in Singapore (CARES)

, is a collaboration between Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and the University of Cambridge. CLIC is a flagship programme in the Science of Learning to harness advancements in neuroscience to develop cognitive training programmes for the improvement of lifelong flexible learning, focusing initially on adolescents and young adults, but also envisaging work with infants and older adults. This is a strategic global initiative for the Universities of Cambridge and NTU that brings together multidisciplinary expertise from over 30 investigators in the areas of Neuroscience, Psychology, Linguistics and Education across the two universities.

We are looking to recruit Research Associate to support research activities focusing on social and societal factors that influence cognitive flexibility and learning among adults and adolescents.

Adolescent Study: In the first phase of the Adolescent Component of the Study, the two-year project involves mapping the construct of cognitive flexibility among adolescents in Singapore schools. The work will involve both a systematic evaluation of the cognitive constructs through standardized measures as well as classroom observations and interviews examining cognitive flexibility constructs in ecologically valid classroom conditions.
