Researchers in the Virginia Tech Learning and Development Lab are looking for fourth graders and their parents to participate in a Virginia Tech research study (IRB #25-565).

Participation involves one 60-minute video-recorded session, either on the Blacksburg campus or in community-based locations in Floyd or Roanoke, during which children will complete word problems, along with other math and reading activities. Parents will complete a brief, 15-minute questionnaire.

Parents and children must speak and read English in order to participate. Compensation is $20 cash; children will also receive prizes during the session.
