The purpose of this web site is to
document my work as a doctoral student in the Department
of Educational Psychology at the University of Connecticut
(UConn). On these web pages you will find samples
of my best research work in the Cognition & Instruction
Program. Use the menu to the left to view my responses
to each of six elements required for the comprehensive
exam.
Most of the samples provided on these pages are related
to my research interests, which center around online
learning and its use within military training environments.
In my research to date, I have used a social cognitive
view of self-regulation to investigate how personal
motivational beliefs, such as task value and self-efficacy,
influence student success in online learning situations.
Please see the Cognition
& Instruction Program web pages for more information
on the general procedures and requirements for the
comprehensive exam.
