Graduate Student
My research interest focuses on applying cognitive psychology to teaching and learning. More specifically, I’m interested in the effects of different learning strategies and criterion tasks on memory, mind-wandering and metacognition. Although my past research experience has been mainly in the field of reading comprehension, I’m interested in learning using a variety of materials and tasks.
