WELCOME TO OUR SITE!

We are an educational science research group whose goals include (i) identification of the task-specific use of visuo-spatial strategies in scientific problem solving, (ii) characterization of the interaction of visuo-spatial ability and scientific expertise, and (iii) the development of visualization software for teaching high school and college chemistry. We approach these problems using psychometrics, clinical interviews, laboratory-based psychological experiments, and curriculum development and assessment in science classrooms. Find us in the Benjamin Building on the UMD campus.
