  • I am honored to have been elected to serve as the Junior Chair for the SSRL Special Interest Group (SIG). SIGs support the mission of the American Educational Research Association. The mission of the Studying and Self-Regulated (SSRL) SIG is to promote "the development of theory and research in academic studying and self-regulated learning across the life span. The SIG brings together researchers and practitioners to share expertise in all aspects of self-regulated learning, including motivation, metacognition, learning and studying strategies, and the ways in which learners manage their emotions and environments."

 

  • I was appointed to the Editorial Board for the internationally peer-reviewed journal Metacognition and Learning. This journal addresses various components of metacognition, such as metacognitive awareness, experiences, knowledge, and executive skills. I am thrilled to join the Editorial Board of this prestigious journal!

 

  • I presented three papers at the international American Educational Research Association (AERA) conference in San Francisco, CA (April 2013). Two of these papers were co-authored by pre-service teachers from Gustavus Adolphus College. One paper, co-authored by Amanda Miller (Elementary Education), examines the role of self-regulated learning and epistemological beliefs in how pre-service teachers evaluate lesson plans. Another paper, co-authored by Anna Finley (Elementary Education), examines the developmental trajectory of epistemological beliefs among pre-service teachers. The third paper assesses the effect of various motivation constructs on metacognitive process during hypermedia learning.
