Leaving UAT and Getting Attention
Hey everyone!
Now that the majority of my research project is over, I'm focused on working on my final presentation (May 6th) and deliverable: a research paper.
I have mixed feelings about saying goodbye to UAT. On one hand, I'm glad I was able to complete my internship and get everything I needed for my research study; On the other hand, I've become so accustomed to showing up weekly that everyone has just accepted me as a student there, and it feels weird to not go! I've had a really fun experience learning how to run a research study, and I'm glad I was able to meet so many cool people.
Although my research isn't exactly groundbreaking or official, I am pretty excited that I got noticed for it! The marketing specialist at UAT, Lauren Fach, reached out to me to write a blogpost about my research. It was featured on the UAT VR twitter, as well as on the UAT Tech Blog.
Thank you all for following my exciting journey into virtual reality research!

I was also interviewed by a reporter from Cronkite News, Lahela Maxwell. She came into the lab on my last week at UAT to ask me some questions, and I ran her through the experiment as a demo. That story hasn't been published yet, but I will update you all when it is!

I know a lot of research and thought went into planning your experiment. You had previously mentioned you experienced some challenges, Nevertheless, you demonstrated much creativity and flexibility throughout the process. Upon reflection, what is one aspect of the work you feel you planned quite well for that contributed to your success?
