Jonathon Sikorski, of Hudson, Wis., a Ph.D. student in Educational Psychology in CEHS. Beth Doll is his advisor. Sikorski’s dissertation will examine educators’ use of data to monitor student learning. He will look specifically at how to adequately measure teachers’ ability to collect, analyze and apply that data in the classroom. This is an essential contribution to national efforts to use data to strengthen schools’ accountability. Sikorski holds multiple leadership positions at UNL and nationally that include being a student mentor for his department, student liaison for the Academic Program Review, chair of the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) Student Development Workgroup, and serving as a contributing editor of a monthly column in the NASP Communique. He has co-authored four journal articles, four book chapters and participated in 15 presentations at regional and national conferences. He received his undergraduate and master’s degree from the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. Sikorski’s long-term goal is to pursue a faculty position at a R1 university that would enable him to teach, research and collaborate with others.
