Working with upperclass undergraduates and talking about careers in psychology. I feel like I can provide a general overview of things, then get specific with clinical psych. However, I'm at a loss when it comes to other areas.

Been working to create more accessible tools for getting started with R for psychologists. GitHub Pages has been a great tool for allowing me to do this (dharaden.github.io/psyc640/). Aiming to create another site for a broader audience and would love suggestions!

Really proud of what I've got so far for my Grad Stats course. I wanted to create something that could be easily looked back on or referred to. A lot of students are uncomfortable with R (and most of the stats), so I'm trying to create an open and supportive environment. dharaden.github.io/psyc640/
