Education Studies News and Events
Two CES MA Psychology and Education students awarded Studentships
We are delighted that two of our projects have been awarded studentships by SF-DDARIN.
SF-DDARIN is a network of researchers and practitioners that supports the dissemination and promotion of ABA-based interventions for people with developmental disabilities. SF-DDARRIN awarded two studentships to CES students to support research towards their dissertation. Supervised by Dr Vaso Totsika (University of Warwick), the students will work in Calthorpe Academy (Birmingham) under the guidance of Dr Corinna Grindle (ABA consultant and Associate Fellow University of Warwick) to develop and evaluate interventions for children with severe learning disabilities.
