22 Research Reflection By Samantha Barlow

Faculty Mentor: Rachel Hayes-Harb (Linguistics, University of Utah)
I started late in my academic career with undergraduate research. I only first started to work on research in my last year as an undergraduate. However, in that small amount of time, I helped conduct a replication study that will be published in Studies in Second Language Acquisition, joined the Speech Acquisition Lab in the Linguistics department, and start working on a research project with a smaller group. Both studies I have worked on have been accepted to conferences and I have and will attend both conferences to present. I have learned how to think critically, collaborate, and think about the effects of my work as a researcher. I have learned that I value the research process and am interested in continuing work in research. The knowledge and networking opportunities I have been able to develop have been extremely beneficial for my education and future plans.
