Elizabeth Richey PhD

I conduct learning sciences research, with particular interests in educational technology, motivation, example-based learning, explanation, collaboration, and belonging. Through laboratory experiments and classroom studies, I examine cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational factors that influence math and science learning from middle school through college.
