Faculty Research Overview
>> Greene, Jeffrey
Jeff Greene’s research focuses upon student cognition, regulation and beliefs in science and history domains. Specifically, he studies self-regulated learning, or how students’ knowledge, beliefs and characteristics interact with their ability to actively and adaptively monitor and control their learning, motivation, behavior and context. He also examines epistemic and ontological cognition, or how students think about knowledge and the ways in which those views influence learning. His research includes both experimental and non-experimental designs as well as quantitative, qualitative and mixed-methods methods. Greene publishes his research in professional journals including Review of Educational Research, Journal of Educational Computing Research and Instructional Science.
